Families in Mission
We believe that loving and serving others is an important part of discipleship. We show our love for God in how we love others. Therefore we seek opportunities to involve children in loving our neighbors through acts of service and justice.
Upcoming Mission Projects
Alex's Lemonade Stand
Children are invited to help raise money for childhood cancer research through Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation. We will host a lemonade stand on Sunday, June 8, before and after both worship services. Click here to sign up to sell lemonade and other treats!
John Wesley's
Birthday Party
Throughout the month of June, we will be celebrating the birthday of John Wesley, one of the founders of the Methodist movement. Each Sunday in June, you're invited to bring a "present" in the form of an item from our Food Pantry Birthday Bag wish list: boxes of birthday cake mix, cans of frosting, disposable 9x13 baking pans, birthday candles, and balloons. You can drop these boxes off in donation boxes in the FLC, narthex and near the children's and youth Sunday school rooms upstairs in the education wing. We will also accept cash and check donations as well.
We will assemble birthday bags for our Food Pantry during Vacation Bible School. On June 29, children and youth are invited to attend John Wesley's birthday party during the Sunday school hour. We'll have cake, traditional birthday games, and share a few interesting stories about John Wesley's life.
