The Michigan Conference announces Advocacy Day 2024, to be held March 13 in Lansing, and the topic is mental health care access.

Save the date — March 13, 2024 — and join hundreds of United Methodists and friends at the State Capitol in Lansing to advocate for increased access to mental health care, an issue that impacts every family in Michigan.

We have some seats available to carpool in the church van!
RSVP to Kristen to reserve your seat! Departure time TBD!

The Michigan Conference needs your help in making 600 semicolon butterflies. On Advocacy Day, 421 semicolon butterflies will be displayed on the Capitol lawn, each representing 1,000 Michiganders in 2020 who did not receive the mental health treatment they needed. Nardin Park UMC will have supplies and materials after both services on March 3rd.
