SERVE

Volunteering Your Time

As John Wesley, the founder of the United Methodist Church said, "Do all the good you can, by all the means you can, in all the ways you can, in all the places you can, at all the times you can, to all the people you can, as long as ever you can."

​

There are opportunities for children, youth, and adults to serve the church.
