LOUMC Mission Projects
LOUMC Coat Closet

This room in our church may be small but it is mighty! LOUMC has provided coats to many throughout the Lake Orion community whose budgets do not permit outdoor apparel. As the cold weather approaches our Brenda Brubaker-Ulery receives size-specific orders through school contacts and delivers them to the schools for the families that have been identified as needing assistance. Our church's assistance has been appreciated with only positive feedback!
