Motown United Ministries began in December, 2003 when invitation letters were sent to eight ministries that Trinity Lutheran Church in Utica, MI partners with. Due to lack of volunteers, the only ministries able to commit were Detroit Rescue Mission Ministries and MCREST.
Although not a financial benefiting partner, Trinity Lutheran Church in Utica, MI provides the state licensed kitchen, storage space, leadership, and well over half of the volunteers needed to make the products and sell them. This commitment is made as a way of living out their faith in Jesus Christ...and serving as the hands and feet of Christ. Ephesians 2:10 is a key verse they stand on. Check out all three web sites. We think you will be so impressed by what they do, you might see other needs that you can help with. 2005 saw $11,000 split with $5,000 each to DRMM and to MCREST. They tithed, with $1,000 being split among six other area ministries who shelter and feed the homeless. "M.U.M.'s Soup" is grateful for the support we have received.
Thank you for your interest and your purchases. Know that as you are enjoying your meal of soup, or that batch of brownies, the profits of Motown Soup are being shared not among stockholders, but among men/women/children living in shelters and/or receiving meals that they would not normally have had access to.
Thank you. "When I was hungry......you fed me."
