UMRC Annual Meeting and Shuckin and Shaggin on Daniel Island - April 11, 2008

Whether you are a " shucker' or a "shagger" you should make your way to Daniel Island's Pierce Park Pavilion on Friday, April 11th for the last (and the best!) oyster roast of the season. Bring your shaggin' shoes and dance the night away under the beautiful backdrop of the Wando River while listening to the music of the Palmetto Dance Band. Join UMRC staff, board, volunteers and friends for an evening of celebration, recognition and appreciation. The Annual Meeting begins at 6:00 p.m. followed by food, fun, dancing and a silent auction. Tickets are $20 per person or $35 per couple. Call (843) 520-6153 for credit card purchase. For more information call UMRC at (843) 884-4860.

Pat's "Handle With Prayer Drawer"

Ms. Barbara, a single parent of two teenage sons and one son in college, needs your help! The floors and the roof in her home are rotting and caving in. Her windows and doors do not keep the cold air out. She has been on our waiting list since August 2006 and since that time her living situation has gotten worse. Our staff has placed Ms. Barbara and her children in our prayer drawer and we are praying that we can find enough funding to help this family with the repairs that they need.

Please Keep Ms. Barbara and children in your prayers.

Here are some examples of what your donation can do:

$1,000 can help with a new roof.
$500 can help with an HVAC unit
$300 can help with floor repairs
$250 can help with electricity upgrades
$100 can help buy windows

A gift of any amount is greatly appreciated. Every bit helps!
