Services:  A cooperative effort of area churches, the Farmington Area Ecumenical Ministry supports many initiatives in Franklin County. Most notably, the churches of Franklin County cooperate to provide emergency fuel assistance to families in need by pooling resources to supplement help available through Western Maine Community Action’s LIHEAP (Low Income Heating and Energy Assistance Program) and ECIP (Energy Crisis Intervention Program). The Franklin County Ecumenical Heating Fund is an outreach ministry of the Farmington Area Ecumenical Ministry (FAEM), designed to provide emergency fuel assistance to any needy family in Franklin County. Individual churches may or may not offer assistance from their own funds. The pastors of cooperating churches refer families in need to Tania Gage at Western Maine Community Action for assistance. Households are encouraged to apply for LIHEAP every year as soon as possible; once qualified, emergency assistance is easier to access.

Recipients must be residents of Franklin County. In the event of a fuel emergency, call Tania Gage at 645-3764, Extension 5523, Monday through Friday, 8:00-4:30 (no holidays). Tania will first apply any federal funds available either under LIHEAP or ECIP. When no federal funds are available, the Ecumenical Heating Fund will cover the cost of delivering 100 gallons of fuel. In the case of families who do not qualify for LIHEAP, but cannot afford fuel, Tania will conduct an interview and may authorize the use of the Ecumenical Heating Fund. Families are encouraged to call during office hours only, since emergency deliveries of fuel on nights and weekends require a special delivery charge.

The Franklin County Ecumenical Heating Fund is dependent upon donations from churches and individuals.

Donations may be sent to:

Franklin County Ecumenical Heating Fund, c/o HMBC, P.O. Box 147, Farmington, ME 04938

For more information, contact: Rev. Susan Crane (778-2163-church, or 897-9466-home) FAEM Coord. for the Franklin County Ecumenical Heating Fund
