UAW Local 249 Chaplaincy

  Caring in the Workplace
Are you worried about finances?
Do you have problems on the job?
Is a loved one sick or passed away?
Are there relationship problems?
Are you physically or mentally abused?
Drugs or alcohol problems in your family?
Thoughts of suicide?

If there is any stress in your life or you just need a friend, the UAW Local 249 Chaplaincy Program is here for you to get spiritual advice or we can just listen.  Call the Union Hall at (816)-454-6333 and your local will put you in touch with one of our caring Chaplaincy members. If you know a co-worker or family member who is sick or passed away please contact the union hall so our chaplains can visit or attend services.
