Happy New Year! If you are looking for a volunteer opportunity near you during 2023, working on the St. John's Feeding America Mobile Food Pantry could be your calling. Three days before Christmas Eve, 21 volunteers found time to distribute food to 91 households, 284 individuals, 41 seniors, 96 children and 11 veterans.

The next event is scheduled on January 4, 2023, at Sudanese Grace Episcopal Church, located at 1550 Oswego NW, Grand Rapids, MI, 49504. Volunteers gather at 5 pm, distribution starts at 6 pm. Finacial donations are welcome by using the church app or by writing a check to St. John's, designating Mobile Food Pantry on the memo.

While the snow should be winding down, the roads are still very slick and salt will not start working until the air temperature warms on Monday or Tuesday. Because of the safety risk, Sunday morning service will be online only and will be led by the staff of the Michigan Conference UCC.
Please join our conference leaders for worship at 10:00 AM EST on our website, on YouTube, or on Facebook and celebrate Jesus' birth from the safety and comfort of home.
