 Serving Our Local Neighbors


The words of the hymn “Jesu, Jesu” ask Jesus to “fill us with your love, show us how to serve the neighbors we have from you”.  Loving our neighbor through service is primary in Fridley UMC’s ministry.  We serve in many ways:  

• The monthly Family Table meal
• Individual and group service at area organizations, such as those listed below
• Service as tutors and helpers at Stevenson school
• Helpers in our onsite day care, The Rainbow School
• Financial support to our United Methodist missions and to many other missions
• Support to people in need
• Donations of goods to various groups, including the Anoka County Jail

 

Monthly Focus - (May 2013)

Our May Mission - The Love Offering
 
This offering is supported by all of the churches in the Dakotas-Minnesota Area and will be delivered by our delegates to the Annual Conference.  Bishop Bruce Ough writes, "The Love Offering for missions is one way that we support ministries that make disciples and bring God's hope and grace into the world.  This year, we have the opportunity to support ministries that unleash bold leaders who compassionately live and teach the Way of Christ."
Here is the breakdown for distributing this offering:
  25% will assist the Women and Community Association.
  20% will benefit Red Bird Missionary Conference.
  20% will assist Emma Norton Services in St. Paul.
  25% will advance Native American ministries to Minnesota.
  10% will fund Volunteer in Mission scholarships.
Your faithful giving will develop leaders that inspire and help others to live out God's love in their communities.

Ongoing Service to Our Neighbors
In addition to contribution to many United Methodist projects, both in Minnesota and globally, the congregation regularly supports local outreach needs.

Some organizations that receive support and offerings from our members: 

Loaves and Fishes: Volunteers from Fridley United Methodist Church serve a hot meal once a month (the second Monday of each month) at one of the ten area sites for Loaves and Fishes.
 

Meals on Wheels: Our congregation members volunteer to deliver meals to seniors and others in need.  The meals are prepared and packed at Unity Hospital.

Feed My Starving Children: This a non-profit Christian organization committed to feeding God’s starving children hungry in body and spirit. Children and adults hand-pack meals. 

Serve Globally:  Service in missions located beyond Minnesota, nationally, or internationally.
