UMCOR Earthquake Relief
Two powerful earthquakes struck southern Turkey and Syria in February, followed by 78 aftershocks in the days and weeks afterward. The combined death toll in Turkey and Syria now stands at more than 47,000 persons. At least 164,000 buildings have either collapsed or are so damaged that they need to be demolished. The humanitarian response is overstretched due to the devastation and cold weather.
United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR) is providing tents, heaters, blankets, coats, food, and first aid kits to the victims. UMCOR will remain until people’s needs are met and they have been placed in adequate housing. Please consider donating to the relief effort through this week’s Moment for Mission at Woodlawn UMC. Remember, 100% of your donation ALWAYS reaches your chosen mission project or ministry through UMCOR! Another reason to be grateful for the United Methodist Church! Thank you so much for your support!
Your faithful giving remains critical to our church’s mission and ministry.
Below are the moment for mission totals collected within the last month. Thank you!
Victory in the Valley $480
Angel House Bus $430
Boy Scouts $755
PANDO $640
You're invited to prayerfully consider how God is calling you to be
the heart, hands, and feet of Jesus.
You may mail contributions to the church at

Introducing The WUMC Buck!
We are so excited about this new concept. For now, (although, keep an eye out in the future!), the WUMC (pronounced Wum-Cee) buck is going to be a great way to teach children about missional giving.
For the Lenten season, we are going to be collecting a special offering, going directly to a children’s mission fund! On Easter Sunday, the children are going to participate in their annual Easter Egg Hunt, but with a special twist! In their goodie bags, they will receive a dividend of the WUMC bucks that were collected from 2/26 until 4/2. It will be up to them how many dollars will go to each missional organization chosen. They will literally get to see their donations in action!
How can you help? Each week Caitlin will announce the amount collected between the children and the congregation. On the first Sunday (2/26) we collected a total of $72! $42 came directly from the children and $30 from the congregation. How cool is that? We invite you to give as little or as much as you’d like to this fun children’s mission. The children will get to see how awesome it is to direct their missional giving toward something they are passionate about, too.
Donating to the WUMC buck will only be used for missions! The idea of the WUMC buck may change as we learn and grow moving forward, but the dollar-for-dollar donations will always stay missional. We appreciate how you support children’s ministry here at Woodlawn UMC!
Volunteers are urgently needed for the Contemporary worship service on Sundays. Volunteers would serve once a month, sitting in the tech booth and advancing the screens by computer. It's as easy as pushing a space bar! Training is available.
Stephen Ministers are here to help
If you are in a struggle with anxiety, loss, and/or isolation, you might not know exactly when your understanding and acceptance from this crisis will come. But, we can rely on our risen Lord to be truly present with it all, even when others can't be. If you need a message of hope and encouragement, call on a Stephen Minister to help you on this journey. A Stephen Minister can help you through the valleys of life to help restore your joy. Call Kelly Gifford- 316 708 0691 to be matched with a Stephen Minister.
God’s command that we love one another is as relevant now as it was thousands of years ago, and Stephen Ministry is one way you can show that love. A Stephen Minister training class is starting soon. Contact Roylene Klein at 316-250-0135 to learn more about how you can get involved.
