Here are a few ways Christ is alive and working at Fayetteville First UMC and in our community.
April is Earth Month – Celebrate & Participate
Here are some ways to engage at Fayetteville First UMC and other organizations as we work to care for our planet.
Green Team – Everyday!
Join the efforts of this group seeking care for God’s good green earth every day! Events and initiatives are planned throughout the year. You can be part of comprehensive recycling by creating a CHaRM Train where a group of caring people gather a host of recyclables and deliver them to the Center for Hard to Recycle Materials in Atlanta on a regular basis. Get more info on this and other initiatives by emailing green@fayettevillefirst.com.
Blood Drive
Our next American Red Cross Blood Drive is Sunday,July 14, from 8 AM to 1 PM in the gym. Sign up for a specific giving time at redcrossblood.org. Thanks for giving the gift of life!
Community Benevolence
Ongoing assistance to others in our community through benevolence funds and contributions to our local food pantry, Fayette Samaritans. During June and July, participate in the summer lunch program which provides meals to families who receive free or reduced-priced lunch during the school year.
Summer Lunch Program
More than 270 lunches were packed each week during June and July to provide food security in our community for those on free or reduced lunch during the school year. Thank you for your contributions of funds, cookies, apples, and many volunteer hours!
