UPDATE: praise the Lord! Need has been met. Thank you to the Forge Christian Ministries and Bobs Bargain Barn. You are truly a blessing!


We have a big need right now. Our electric dryer stopped drying, and we do multiple loads of laundry each day.
Does anyone have a dryer that works well they would be willing to donate?

🌍 Important Social Media Update for Our Outreach Community!

Our commitment to serving our neighbors remains strong! We're streamlining our online presence to better connect our entire church family under one digital roof.

Soon, this First United Methodist Church Outreach page will become a static archive of our past missions and stories.

To continue following all Outreach news, mission trip planning, community projects, and opportunities to serve, please transition to following our main pages!

Starting November 15th, you'll find all our new content on the Van Wert First United Methodist Church page (www.facebook.com/vanwertfumc) and firstum on Instagram.
