Food & Toiletry Drive
Summer is a season of high need and low donations—and we need your help! Thanks to your generosity, we’ve served 52–64 families (240–270 people) each month through our food outreach ministry since February. Alongside food from ALIVE!, we’ve shared books, toiletries, school supplies, and more. Please consider donating the needed items listed in the announcements. Drop-offs can be made in the Narthex (outside the sanctuary).
Build-a-Backpack
Build-a-backpack to help support ALIVE! We will be distributing backpacks filled with school supplies in August to our ALIVE! clients at the monthly food distribution. A list of requested supplies (from Alexandria City PS’s website) is found below, and you can bring the filled backpack (great for a small group project!) to the church on or before Sunday, August 17
summer worship
We will be switching to our Summer Worship Times on Father’s Day, Sunday June 15. Join us for worship this summer in the sanctuary and online at 10 AM. The morning gathering group will continue to meet each Sunday at 8:30 AM in the parlor and will be taking a break for the month of July.
Participate in FUMC's Food Mission w/ALIVE!: Monthly, 3rd Wednesdays from 4-6:30 PM.
Our congregation will be picking up and delivering gently used donated furniture with ALIVE! every-other month. It's a ministry that changes lives. Each piece of furniture delivered represents more than just comfort—it offers dignity, stability, and hope to families who need it most. We need a team of 4-5 people to help.
