On Aug. 18, over a dozen people representing a diversity of ages and races showed up at Long Beach Rescue Mission with one purpose: to serve. These “Worker Bees” meet once a month for Servant Sunday. The service is part of the ministry of Being the Church Long Beach, a collaboration of four United Methodist churches.
With support from UMCOR, United Methodists in Southern Congo provided food and other supplies to inmates at a Kasapa prison. Church leaders also brought a message of hope.
