UMCOR Sager Brown Depot Mission Trip
October 10-15, 2021
This October we’ll be ready for a mission trip to UMCOR’s Sager Brown Disaster Response Depot in Baldwin, Louisiana. Volunteers will process relief kits to be shipped and staged for disaster response through the US and beyond. The setting of the Depot is relaxing and beautiful, along the banks of Bayou Teche. The basic registration fee per person is $275. Deadline to register is May 15, 2021.
And speaking of UMCOR Relief Kits, we need to replenish the dozens of 5-gallon bucket cleaning kits we provided our neighbors to help with clean-up following the winter storm. If you or your group would like to make a cleaning kit, you can find the instructions here: https://umcmission.org/umcor-
Beautiful Feet
We partner with Fort Worth’s Beautiful Feet Church to minister to the local homeless population.
Beautiful Feet Church ministry is in need of:
- Prepared Meals (i.e. Casseroles) for theme-of-the-week*
- PB&J or Meat and Cheese Sandwiches (no condiments)
- Donations of Chips, Cookies, Fruit, Packaged Condiments, and/or Water (no apples please, they are too hard for people with teeth and gum issues)
- If you enjoy baking, there is always a need for cookies, brownies, bars, and muffins.
- Coffee grounds and powdered cream and sugar
- Styrofoam To-go containers
- Packaged silverware and napkin
- Collection times are every Monday from 5-6 pm and Tuesday from 8:30-11 am.
*Each week we will have an assigned item to cook, view the Beautiful Feet Meal Schedule 2021. Prepared meals should be sent in a disposable container, preferably an aluminum foil pan so that it can be refrigerated/frozen easily, then reheated in the oven. It is not necessary for food to be sent hot. Drop off these donations by the west side of Building D’s metal garage doors. For more details, email serving@fmcm.org.
Feed the Kids
We need the following donations for the Feed the Kids program. These can be dropped off anytime in the Big Blue Bins in front of the Mission Building (Building D) on the church campus. Contact vickyh@fmcm.org if you have questions.
- Tuna Fish single-serve containers
- Chicken single-serve containers
Meals on Wheels
Volunteers deliver lunch meals to homebound persons Monday through Friday. Currently, we need volunteers to serve as Subs and Regular Route drivers. If you would like to serve with MOW, contact servingfmcm.org.
