At FUMC, we work hard to make sure our members get the spiritual care they need. Whether it is keeping particular people or situations in prayer, visiting the hospitalized or sick, or taking time to hear the joys and concerns of God’s people, we want you to know we care.
Help us to care for you and others in our community letting us know particular needs you or your loved one have:
From time to time, we will also post funeral information about members who have passed away:
Our YES committee also has two projects to provide care for our members. Click below for more information:
