Outreach Ministries
At FUMC of Longmont, we believe it is important to serve the community and provide Christian kindness and hospitality to all in need.
ATTENTION—MOMS!
Agape Mom’s Group meets Wednesdays and the 2nd Saturday of every month from 9:00 to 11:00am.
Connect with other mothers as we share in the joys and trials of motherhood.
As a group we provide support, develop and expand friendships and offer learning experiences about God and our world through weekly meetings using books, speakers, discussions and other events or outings.
Agape Moms Weekend Edition will be held this coming Saturday May 8,2010 from 9-11 AM in the church Gallery. This group is open to all women both in and out of our congregation and as always childcare is provided free of charge.
This summer our topic will be Balance, because what mom isn’t searching for some of it!

The OUR Center is a Longmont food assistance facility that houses a food pantry and serves a hot lunch seven days a week. First United Methodist Church supports the OUR Center through food and personal item donations. We are a loving congregation that cares about the needs of the community. This is an especially difficult time for Longmont families as the Food Stamp system is leaving them without food.
Church food drive: Item for Feb. is CANNED FRUIT.
The OUR Center will also accept Similac baby formula, baby food, bags of beans, cereal, canned fruit, pasta, hair shampoo toothpast, canned soup and dishwashing liquid. As always, any donations of any kind of food or personal items are appreciated. Please put your items in the box marked OUR Center located on the western side of the Gallery.
