We will be in contact with you to set up a date soon!

Introducing Marci Logsdon, Newest Member of the NUMF Staff

Marci Logsdon will become the Director of Finance for the Foundation beginning June 1, although she has been in-training since March. We are overwhelmed with joy and gratitude that God led Marci to us. Having known Marci professionally for several years, Executive Director Anita Crisp says, "We are blessed beyond words to have Marci join our staff."

Marci comes to the Foundation with over 25 years of experience in church finance. A true Nebraskan, she grew up on a farm near Utica and moved to Lincoln as a young adult. She enjoys working in finance saying, "I love working with numbers and knowing that there is a correct numerical solution. I like the black and white of this type of work." Marci also enjoys working with people, "I am very much looking forward to working with the many people behind the funds at the Foundation. I enjoy helping, talking with, and getting to know people, even if it's just by phone!"

Marci has been married to husband, Larry, for 29 years. They are the busy parents of five children, ages ranging from 13 - 28 years old. Marci just recently became a grandmother of a sweet baby boy and is looking forward to two more grandchildren arriving by Christmas, with her daughter being pregnant with twins. Marci stays busy in her spare time. Some of her favorite activities are biking and scrapbooking. She adds, "Spending time with my family is the highest on my favorite pastime list, though!"

Welcome to the Foundation family, Marci. We are so happy you are here and have no doubt all of you will enjoy her as much as we do!

Inspiration

Let's Raise $50,000 for our Camps!
  
We are almost halfway into our 50th Anniversary Year!
As a way to mark this special year, we continue to raise funds to create an endowment for our three Nebraska United Methodist Camps.  We are so blessed to have these beautiful locations offering wonderful resources to our families.  Our goal is to raise $50,000 as a way to say thank you to the camps, their staff, and their volunteers, for giving us all the opportunity to connect with God in such an inspirational place.  These camps have made a difference in the lives of many and it's time for us to make a difference for them!  Please consider giving by clicking here, replying to this e-note or calling Jackie at 402-323-8841 (toll-free 1-877-495-5545).  Thank you to all who have given so far.  We are excited that each day brings us closer to our goal!
