SERVE
MIDDLEBROOK PIKE UNITED METHODIST CHURCH
MISSIONS
Go into the world and make disciples of all people.”
(Matthew 28:18).
Fulfilling this commission comes in a variety of manners and ways in serving our Lord.
We encourage everyone to “get involved” in some form of ministry in the life of the church. It could be serving in our FISH food pantry where non-perishable food supplies are given to over 200 families per month. Or it could be volunteering to work with children, youth, or older adults.
FISH Food pantry
Our FISH Pantry provides groceries to those in need in our community. Monthly our volunteers collect, pack and distribute food to the homeless and hungry.
