The Social Action Committee presents "Mission in Action - Helping to Save the Environment" during the Sunday, Jan. 31, at the 9:30 a.m. service at Prince of Peace United Methodist Church, 1400 S. Arlington Heights Road in Elk Grove Village.

As part of the church's commitment to care for the earth, the Social Action Committee has invited the founder of SCARCE to speak to the congregation and community guests.

SCARCE is an environmental education association, which collects items destined for landfills and identifies groups, such as schools and hospitals that have a need for those items.

All are welcome to attend and discover how their trash can benefit someone else while protecting our environment.

For details, call (847) 439-0668 or email office@popumc.com. Visit popumc.com.

Prince of Peace welcoming statement: Believing in God's inclusive love, we welcome all into full participation in the congregation, regardless of age, ability, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity, faith background, family configuration, or socioeconomic status.
