United Methodist Volunteers in Mission Teams (6 to 8 person teams) have started traveling to Wisconsin
to help in removal of water from homes, removal of water logged appliances, and cleaning up of mud and debris.
If you have a week off this summer, you can join a team traveling to Wisconsin! There are churches in Wisconsin that are able to provide shelter to sleep, eat and take showers. Help is also needed with expenses, such as travel expenses - gasoline, food, etc. for volunteers traveling from Michigan. Please contact Terry & Duane Townley, 989-835-7564, if you can help.
