Mission Focus

Fourth Quarter Mission Focus: United Methodist Committee on Relief

As the humanitarian relief and development arm of the United Methodist Church, the United Methodist Committee on Relief – UMCOR – assists United Methodists and churches to become involved globally in direct ministry to persons in need. Your gift to UMCOR makes God’s love tangible, alleviates suffering and serves as a source of help and hope to survivors of all kinds – be it from war or conflict, hurricane, famine, earthquake or flood. Donations to UMCOR . . .

  • Enable emergency grants and supplies immediately after a disaster.
  • Provide for sustainable sources of food, water and shelter.
  • Allow UMCOR workers and volunteers to be among the earliest to arrive and the last to leave when people are in need.
  • Help strengthen communities through both disaster preparedness and long-term recovery.

Make checks payable to Warsaw First UMC. You may designate either “U.S. Disaster” or “International Relief” on the memo line; any undesignated mission giving and weekly coin offerings will be divided equally between “U.S.” and “International” projects. You may also donate via our online giving portal here. Because of the annual special UMCOR Sunday offering, 100% of disaster-response donations are directed to the U.S. and international communities in need.

More information may be found at the following sites:

Donate online here and select the drop-down Fund:  MISSONS.  You can also drop off a check to the church with "UMCOR" in the memo line.

Your generous support is greatly appreciated!

Community Kitchen & Closet

Community Kitchen Every Wednesday from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Community Closet Every Wednesday from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. (closed 1st Wednesday)

The Community Kitchen and Closet has been relocated to hosting lunch inside!  Come join us at 179 S. Indiana Street.

First United Methodist Church has a long history of serving a soup kitchen out of the Fellowship Hall at our downtown campus.  For many years, that meal was served on the last two business days of each month.  In early 2009, we discerned a change in the needs of the community and began serving every Wednesday.  We have a number of other churches and community groups who partner with us to make these meals possible.

We are always looking for groups or individuals to partner with to help provide Wednesday lunches to those in the community who need them.  If you would like to participate, please contact the church office at office@warsawfumc.org.

 

The Community Closet was opened in the fall of 2009.  Items that are not covered by food stamps (toiletries and cleaning products) are offered as they are available. Contact the Church Office if you are interested in supporting this ministry with your time or donations. Cash donations may be made at the Church office.

Get involved!

The success of our Church depends on participation from people like you. Get involved in our Ministries - it will change your life.
