FIDO -- On June 16th, the Mens Group sponsored a Fairlington Improvement Day Opportunity and 40 men and women volunteers completed a number of fixup projects to make the FUMC buildings and grounds a great place to workship and gather, including painting of youth rooms and offices, lighting and electrical repairs, carpentry work, kitchen and halls cleaning, and brush and trash removal.

Blood Bank and services for Fathers Day -- On June 17th, FUMC rolled up it's collece sleeves and saved 165 lives. Our goal was 50 units and we provided 55 units through the willingness of our members to step forward. Also, the Mens group organized and led the two Sunday services, which provided an opportunity the talents, experience, and faith of our members to be presented, and Fathers Day has taken on a new meaning at Fairlington. Thanks to Hal Moore for organization of both events, and to all the Men and women who supported our efforts.

Chicken BBQ - The Fairlington United Methodist Men (FUMM) held our annual Chicken BBQ and Yard Sale, on September 8th. We sold 60 chicken dinners and had a lot of fun while doing it. All proceeds from the BBQ will go towards the many ministries supported by the FUMM. Thanks to all those who volunteered and supported a great event.
