Be a Helping Hand

United Methodist Community Services is an agency of the Board of Christian Presence in God’s World, an outreach arm of the Baltimore-Washington Conference. It was started by Rev. Don Llewellyn who still serves as its Coordinator.

We have an office here at LHUMC which is staffed Monday through Friday mornings by volunteers. We receive phone calls from persons in the greater Baltimore area who need assistance. Requests include help with rent or utility bills as well as for food and clothing. Working from a directory of area churches as well as a computer database, we try to find churches or other agencies in their community that offer the assistance that they need. All contacts are by telephone and we do not provide direct assistance. There are three service centers in located in churches in the city that do offer direct assistance as funds are available.

Volunteers are asked to spend 2 to 3 hours one day a week answering the phone and providing phone numbers to callers. Substitutes are always needed. If you would be interested in volunteering for this very worthwhile program, please call: Rev. Don Llewellyn at 410-987-7723 or Jean Irons at 410-691-6363.
