Our Congregational Care team is pleased to begin a new Bible study for senior residents at The Forum in Cupertino. Beginning on Wednesday, June 5, a team will offer a one-hour Bible study every other Wednesday afternoon. Care Ministers Bob Olah, Hallis Ayres, Cliff Reinhardt, and Pastor Jeong have worked together to start this Bible study as an extension of spiritual care and faith community connection, with hopes of deepening the faith of Forum residents. If you are interested in volunteering to help, contact Pastor Jeong (650-948-1083 x114).
Angels on Call is a ministry within LAUMC that provides opportunities to give or receive care. This ministry has been around for a while, and it’s getting a reboot! If you have some free time and a car, volunteer as an angel to help someone get around, or to bring them a meal. Angel volunteers are “on call” to be notified when someone who is ill or recovering needs meals, or make themselves available to those who don’t drive—giving rides to LAUMC services or events, doctor’s appointments, running errands, and similar requests as available. Angels could even grocery shop for someone who is housebound! If you are interested in providing services such as these, or if you or someone you know would benefit from an angel, contact Coordinator of Senior Adult Ministries Megan Carroll (650-948-1083). Please complete volunteer application.
