UBC & MCUM . . . . .

have shared a long partnership of ministry to the poor in our city.  Monroe County United Ministries began serving Bloomington in the 1930's and has grown into an amazing web of basic needs services like food and clothes, as well as high quality affordable childcare for working families.

Do You & Your Family Have Enough Food?

Many working families have occasional or emergency needs for assistance with everyday living expenses.  The good news is that you don't have to spend money for food!  You may contact Pastor Annette, one of our deacons or go directly to MCUM for immediate food assistance. 

Other free food resources in Bloomington include: 

Mother Hubbard's Cupboard 
Community Kitchen of Monroe County



Groceries are due
the 2nd Sunday of each month -
after which Jen delivers them
​to MCUM to be weighed.
