The St. Pauly Clothing Shed in the rear of the church collects gently used clothing and other items for families in need. Please donate clothing, shoes, belts, purses, blankets, sheets, pillowcases, curtains, and stuffed animals. Please do not bring electronics, books, household items, toys, pillows, garbage, rags or fabric scraps.

Glass Recycling: We now accept glass for recycling! Hernando County currently does not accept glass for recycling. SHUCC has found an organization in Citrus County that recycles glass. Recycling glass is open to our congregation and people in the community who would like to participate. Please thoroughly rinse glass before placing it in the proper bin located behind the dumpster on the back of the property. Recycling helps our environment! Broken glass is not accepted!
