SWEETEST GRATITUDE FOR OUR AUGUST REPLENISH RESTORE FOOD DRIVE Thank you for your generous donations to SSUMC’s August Food Drive this week. Our neighbors and fellow servants at Restore – a ministry of Riverview First UMC – are so grateful. And a special thanks to everyone that helped us fill that ‘honkin’ box o’ socks and underwear’ for our friends at Restore to share with children in need in our community for a successful start of the new school year! Thank you, SSUMC, for being

THE Church!
