Church & Community
Interfaith Hospitality Network
The Interfaith Hospitality Network maintains the mission,
"to temporarily house homeless people in a caring environment and support them in accessing
community resources including child care, education, transportation and jobs".
A network of Main Line community churches and synagogues work together to provide
temporary night lodging and meals for homeless women, their children, and families.
While our church is not a host, we have
supported this program with meals and evening supervision for over ten years.

The Guardian Angel program provides a caring touch and link to BUMC
for our college youth, including undergraduate, graduate and
overseas students. Students are enrolled
in the program by their parents. A secret "Angel"
sends cards and small items to the student and
prays for him or her during the
academic year. Signup forms are available in the church office..Caring for In-Home Senior Citizens
Interested in providing care to seniors in their homes? Visiting
Angels has paid jobs available for caregivers to provide in-home
care for seniors. Duties will include assistance with hygiene,
meals, and light housework. Call 610-924-9663 to schedule an

persons who see care giving as a position of compassion
