Serving our neighbors comes naturally to the First Church family. We are currently focused on regional flood relief efforts from the rains Tropical Storm Helene dumped in our local mountain communities.
The immediate focus is resupplying local depots with essential items such as UMCOR (United Methodist Committee on Relief) flood clean-up buckets, water, and additional contractor-grade trash bags. These supplies will be instrumental in ongoing recovery efforts, ensuring necessary tools are available to help families and communities rebuild.
Check out in detail ways that YOU can make a difference.

Cleaning (aka flood) buckets are a fun project and badly needed following a natural disaster. Instead of sending to UMCOR depot, as the instructions say, simply bring to First UMC and we will deliver it to a local UMCOR depot for use in this disaster or the next! Thank you!

Of greatest need are contractor-grade trash bags, bleach, work gloves (leather palm or all leather), and heavy-duty cleaning gloves.
