Souper Bowl of Caring
Souper Bowl of Caring tackles hunger and food insecurity locally by collecting non-perishable food and money to buy food. The UMCL youth typically collect over 100 food items to help our local food pantry. In the USA, Tackle Hunger raised over $163 million for local hunger relief.
Kingdom Bound
Attending Kingdom Bound at Six Flages Darien Lake, NY is an activity that is both fun, as well as an opportunity to build Christian faith. Not only is time allowed for the rides, but there are Christian bands and speakers.
