FUMC is continuing our partnership with ALIVE! by hosting a monthly food distribution pop-up. Every 3rd Saturday of the month we need a team of 10-12 volunteers to hand out food to our neighbors. 

The Heart of Generosity

The heart of Fairlington United Methodist Church beats with the rhythm of fellowship, service, and unwavering faith. This year, as we embark on our annual Giving Campaign, we invite you to join us in a journey of generosity, inspired by our collective commitment to nurture our church family and extend our impact beyond our walls. We encourage you to reflect on how you can support our Giving campaign with a generous heart. Your commitment to giving will ensure that we continue to thrive as a beacon of hope and compassion in our community.

Furniture Delivery 

We need at least 6 volunteers to help with furniture delivery on the second Saturday of each month. We will meet in the FUMC parking lot at 7:30 AM and will finish up by 1 PM. We’ll need a volunteer to drive the truck and someone to drive their car with other volunteers to follow the truck to our deliveries.
