Missions and Service
Through our Faith Work, Fallston UMC provides loving, compassionate care to our brothers and sisters locally, nationally, and internationally. Each month there are numerous ways that you can make a difference in someone’s life.
Helping Hands ministry collects food and household supplies continuously to support the work of local food pantries and social service agencies. The Missions bulletin board will list the month’s focus. Our collection box for goods is located directly below the board.
