The Storyboard: Faith Witness Transformation podcast highlights East Ohio Conference ministries using the core values of the #BeUMC campaign: Disciple Making; Belonging & Inclusion; Influence, Connection & Impact; and Experience of God through The UMC.

Episode 89 “Influence, Connection & Impact: Investing in the Local School” features a discussion with Steven and Kimberly Hall, two laypeople at Amboy UMC who started an outreach ministry to meet the physical needs of students and families in their local school district.

“For me it was a new purpose, and I really felt that God led us to be able to help other children. Even something small can have a ripple effect that you never know can touch somebody,” shared Kimberly.

“When we give out blankets in the wintertime or gloves and hats, jackets, snow boots – all of those things allow a family who is struggling to make ends meet to have that opportunity to not spend that money on that and instead they can spend that money on something else like keeping the water on,” said Steven.
