FLINT, MI -- A Michigan State Representative will be presenting Sunday service on the Flint's water crisis at an area church.

State Rep. Sheldon Neeley (D-Flint) will be at the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Flint, 2474 South Ballenger Highway, on Sunday, Jan. 3 at 10:30 a.m. Neeley will present the Sunday service on the Flint water crisis, according to a news release from the UUCF.

"Flint residents and Flint children have suffered mightily because of the indifference of local and state officials to the problems with the water that families were forced to drink and use after the switch to Flint river water," Neeley said in a statement. "We clearly need to pass new laws that will ensure that this will never happen again in Flint or anywhere in Michigan. Michigan residents deserve safe, drinkable and affordable water, and they will be assured of that when these bills are passed and signed into law."

A forum will follow at 12:15 p.m. with Water Resource Educator at Michigan State University Extension Monica Day. The forum will cover specific actions that can help residents with Flint's ongoing water issues, according to the release.
