At Faith United Methodist Church we are a congregation in mission.  We support and actively participate in several missions both global and local.  Below you will find the many ways in which we are doing God's work through our prayers, our presence and our service.

 

Heifer Project International (HIP)  Gifts to HIP enable hungry families around the world to become more self reliant by providing animals and education in care of those animals.  Our Sunday School holds bake sales starting April 15th.  All proceeds go to purchase various animals for HIP.

 SHINE Week (Sharing His Incredible News Everywhere)

 

Beginning on Monday, June 25th at 9:15 am a group of our youth, grades 4-8, are invited to work their way through a week of mission.  We will be participating in things to help our community, such as working at Penrickton School for the Blind, humbug marsh, the Great Lakes Rabbit sanctuary and much more.  Don't worry it's not all work, we have some fun too.  Fellowship is important and while a common goal brings you together you'll be rewarded with trips to the wave pool, yankee air museum, and some good old fashioned fun at a free car wash.  Please call the office for more information or sign up in the corner lobby.  (there is no cost for this event)
