Did you know….
PFAs are in some household items like Bandaids? Or dental floss?
Learn more about these “forever chemicals” and their risks at our table at
The United Women in Faith’s FALL FAIR on Saturday November 16th between 9a -1p
Pick up some free samples of “PFA-free” items to consider using.
While the water we use from public water supplies is filtered to remove these harmful chemicals, they are pervasive throughout the environment. Just as plastic was viewed as a modern wonder when it was first introduced, PFAs were welcomed in the 1940s as a way to provide stain resistance, water repellency, non-stick pans and grease resistant food packaging. Unfortunately, they’ve now been linked to increased risks of elevated cholesterol, kidney, prostate and testicular cancer, asthma, thyroid disease, liver damage and obesity. And their use likely results in increased risks for pregnancies and young children. And, unlike many other products, these chemicals do not break down when discarded, hence the term “forever” chemicals. Rather they accumulate in the air, land and water around us.
We, as United women in Faith, are working to decrease the chemicals we introduce into the environment by encouraging the use of PFA—free products. Please join us in that effort.

Church-wide Mission Project - Hygiene Kits for UMCOR
