The French United Methodist Church (FUMC) is thrilled to share the latest developments in our ongoing mission to serve as a sanctuary and a bridge for refugees, asylum seekers, and immigrants. We're dedicated to embodying the teachings of Christ, making disciples, and transforming the world by responding to the practical needs of our brothers and sisters.

Celebrating Togetherness with Traditional African Cuisine

Celebrating Togetherness with Traditional African Cuisine

Each Sunday, the FUMC family grows a little larger as we gather around the table to share a traditional African meal. This act of communion is our anchor in the storm of food insecurity that touches the lives of many in our community. Despite the rising costs due to inflation, we continue to provide these meals as a symbol of home and heritage, a testament to our commitment to unity and support.

Opening Doors to New Beginnings

Our housing assistance program remains a cornerstone of our outreach initiatives. With a dedicated fund to aid in housing, we've successfully helped numerous families transition into their new lives in America. Our partnerships with local churches have been invaluable, allowing us to furnish these homes with more than just essentials—they are furnished with hope.

Clothing and Home Essentials: Meeting Immediate Needs

In response to the tangible needs of those we serve, our clothing and home essentials drive has taken off, providing much-needed items to individuals and families. Collaborations with neighboring congregations have not only multiplied our resources but also strengthened the bonds within our faith community.

Open-Table Philosophy: Where All Are Welcome

Our open-table philosophy encapsulates our commitment to inclusivity. FUMC is a place where cultural, racial, and socioeconomic barriers are dismantled. We welcome people from all walks of life, regardless of their faith or background, inviting them to find solace and community within our church walls.

These initiatives are just the beginning. We invite you to engage with us, support our mission, and become a part of the transformative work at FUMC. Together, we can continue to make a difference, forging paths of peace, understanding, and unity in the spirit of Christ's love.
