Here at First Methodist Mansfield, our focus is Making Disciples of Jesus Christ who Love God, Love Others and Serve the World. Below are some examples of ways you can serve. For more information or if you have any questions, contact serving@fmcm.org.
Each year, our Christmas Eve offering goes towards our ministry partner, ZOE. ZOE transforms the lives of orphaned and vulnerable children through a three-year empowerment program, guiding them from poverty and neglect to self-sufficiency and community. It is one of the most powerful examples of transformation through empowerment. Our church is a ZOE Hope Companion, sponsoring 1000 children every 3 years on their journey.
Your offering will go towards helping many others through this life-changing program. To make a gift towards this powerful ministry, give HERE.
Delivering meals at the front door for our homebound neighbors is one of our ongoing volunteer opportunities with Meals On Wheels. Volunteers come from all walks of life: individuals, couples, retirees, stay-at-home moms and dads, as well as groups. Anyone who can spare 1 ½ hours just one day per week Monday through Friday can change someone’s life for the better. If you would like to learn more about volunteering weekly or as an occasional sub, contact Christian Noyes at christiann@fmcm.org.

An excellent way to assist the elderly/disabled/disadvantaged in our community is with yard or minor exterior work on their homes. This is an easy serving project to complete on your own time. Contact Susan Luttrell for suggestions and contacts.
