On Sunday, March 20, we will be holding a Special Offering during our worship service to aid refugees fleeing violence from the war in Ukraine. The United Church of Christ is appealing for support for refugees who have fled Ukraine to neighboring countries and for elderly and other vulnerable people who are displaced within Ukraine and unable to leave. As a member of the ACT Alliance, UCC support is being targeted to people most in need through humanitarian relief partners with a history of working in the region. Click here to learn more.
