We can always use more helping hands for this activity on the Third Monday of each month. We begin about 8:30 am with twenty or so helpers from our church. Join us as we reach out to our local community. More details can be found by clicking here.

FUMC Lockhart periodically responds to UMCOR requests, called "advances".
