The society wants to work collaboratively with others, at learning about and addressing issues of hunger. “We are eager to contribute our time and service at a variety of levels all the while knowing that we do not have answers or solutions. Nonetheless, we hope that our efforts will prove meaningful and helpful to those who struggle with hunger every day, “ said Rev. Jeanne Lloyd, minister of MUUS.

The public is welcome to the service. Refreshments will be available after the service.
