(UMNS) - The United Methodist Committee on Relief has formed a relief supply network. Kathy Kraiza, executive director of UMCOR relief supplies, said the collaboration provides different places for U.S. congregations to send or drop off kits and supplies and allows the denomination to respond to disasters from depots located close to the affected areas. The network includes UMCOR Sager Brown Depot in Baldwin, La.; UMCOR West Depot, Salt Lake City; Mission Response Center, Terrell, N.C.; Midwest Mission Distribution Center, Chatham, Ill.; Eastbrook Mission Barn, New Castle, Pa.; and the MERCI Center, Goldsboro, N.C. British Methodist leader to meet pope LONDON (UMNS) - The president of the Methodist Conference, the Rev. Alison Tomlin, will join other church leaders in greeting Pope Benedict XVI during his four-day state visit to the United Kingdom. Tomlin will be presented to the pope Sept. 17 at Westminster Abbey during a celebration of evening prayer with the Archbishop of Canterbury. "The Catholic Church has been more ecumenically engaged in this country than in other countries," Tomlin said. "It would be good if we could build on that." Correction: Bishop Mathews' ministry in New York NASHVILLE, Tenn. (UMNS) - An obituary of Bishop James K. Mathews posted Sept. 9 gave an incorrect date for his time served leading the Albany (N.Y.) Area. The obituary has been corrected to state that he was called into service from retirement in 1990, leading the newly created Albany Area in upstate New York until 1992. He later served as bishop of the New York Area starting in 1995, when its bishop went on medical leave. UMNS regrets the error.
