(We believe in being the hands and feet of Jesus! FUMC Sheridan is involved in many missions in our community, like these:
Backpack Program: Every week, members of our church meet at one of the schools in Sheridan to pack backpacks for students to take home over the weekend. These provide them with non-perishable food they can prepare easily, if necessary, giving them nourishment while they are away from the two meals received each school day. Those who would like to help but cannot be there to pack may contribute financially by marking their offering envelope “Backpack Program.” The program coordinator is Dee Ann Daniel.
Summer Feeding Program: This is a major effort through the Grant County Ministerial Alliance to feed the hungry in our area throughout the summer when students are not in school. If you would like to volunteer, please contact Judy Green. (For more information about the Summer Feeding Program for 2021, please click on the "More" tab above and choose Summer Feeding Program in the dropdown.)
Mission Team: The Mission team goes out into the community to make wheelchair ramps for anyone who needs one for their home. They also help with maintenance work at Faith House at Keeping the Faith Women’s Shelter, as well as other community service projects. Led by Sam Green.
Throughout the year, groups in our church participate in events such as the Grant County Christmas parade, where we distribute books to young children; the Dragon Boat Festival to raise money for the Children's Protection Center; bell ringers for the Salvation Army during the Christmas season, as well as many others activities where we can serve in mission and ministry.
