Seymour Lake UMC partners with the
North Oakland County Affiliate of Love INC
Love INC is a national faith-based non-profit
organization whose mission is:
To mobilize the Church
to transform lives and communities
In the Name of Christ.
They accomplish this goal by networking Christian churches of all denominations together and by assisting partner churches to develop specialized ministries, so that collectively we can reach the people in our community who are in need, far more effectively than we would ever be able to do on our own. Seymour Lake UMC is currently in the process of developing a “Gas Can” Ministry, which will raise funds for gas cards, so those in need will be able to get to their jobs, to job interviews, or to doctors for medical assistance.
