"Providing Christian ministry of refuge, hope, and encouragement to those in need."
Welcome to Erie United Methodist Alliance
Homelessness is not Hopelessness
Join EUMA at the Highmark Walk for a Healthy Community on Saturday, June 9 at Presque Isle State Park. This fundraising event (a 5K Walk or One-Mile Fun Walk) presented by Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield, benefits 24 local health and human service agencies, including EUMA. Highmark underwrites the cost of the walk, so 100% of the money raised by our walkers goes directly to EUMA ministries.
Can’t be there? You can still make a difference by registering as a “virtual walker.”
