“Do all the good you can, by all the means you can, in all the ways you can, in all the places you can, in all the times you can, to all the people you can, as long as you can.” John Wesley
At Bainbridge FUMC, we seek to fulfill this challenge in our community with our neighbors and all of those around us. Come visit us to find out about what service opportunities are currently happening.

UMCOR Sunday
UMCOR Sunday (formerly known as “The One Great Hour of Sharing”) will be March 31. UMCOR stands for United Methodist Committee on Relief, which is an outreach arm of our General Board of Global Ministries. UMCOR responds to immediate disaster needs as well as ongoing crisis situations (such as famine). UMCOR is able to do this because of the generosity of United Methodists around the world in responding to appeals for assistance. When an appeal is made and you respond, you can be assured that 100% of your gift goes to the project—no administrative costs are taken out. UMCOR can do this because of the UMCOR Sunday offering—these funds cover the administrative costs of UMCOR as well as helping to fund projects that are underfunded. This church is part of the great tradition of United Methodists helping God’s children affected by disaster—please continue that tradition with a generous gift on March 31! |
March Mission Café
The proceeds from our March Mission Café will benefit Colquitt United Methodist Church. This congregation is currently worshipping and operating out of Colquitt First Baptist Church due to the extensive interior damage sustained during Hurricane Michael. Insurance will not cover the full cost of repairs and restoration. This is an opportunity to help a sister United Methodist (and South Georgia) congregation—so enjoy some breakfast goodies and make a generous donation to help our sisters and brothers in Jesus on March 24. |
