United Methodist Committee
on Relief (UMCOR)learn more
The United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR) is the
not-for-profit global humanitarian aid organization of the UnitedMethodistChurch. UMCOR is working in more than 80
countries worldwide, including the United States. Our mission, grounded in the
teachings of Jesus, is to alleviate human suffering—whether caused by war,
conflict or natural disaster, with open hearts and minds to all people. UMCOR
responds to natural or civil disasters that are interruptions of such magnitude
that they overwhelm a community's ability to recover on its own.
Interfaith Hospitality
Networklearn more
First UMC belongs to Interfaith Hospitality
Network, a coalition of local churches that take turns providing temporary
housing for one week during each eleven-week cycle for families who have
recently become homeless. When it is First UMC’s turn to host the families, we ask
volunteers to help with preparing evening meals, driving the van, and acting as
evening, overnight, and weekend hosts.
