Here are ways you can serve the community

Goshen United Methodist Church

is proud to team up with

Family Promise of Effingham

We will form a team who will be responsible for staying overnight at the Family Promise House and/or providing meals to the families. This will happen one week per quarter. Overnight volunteers will need to complete a free background check with the Effingham County Sheriff’s Department and attend a 1 hour training provided by Family Promise. We hope to have enough volunteers so that each person would only spend 1 night per quarter. 

Please complete the Volunteer Form located below and return to a member of the Missions/Evangelism Team who will provide you a folder with more information. 

Hurricane Dorian

Hurricane Dorian’s hit to the Bahamas has been severe. We have been monitoring the situation as the destruction unfolds and will provide further updates as they become available.

UMCOR has awarded a solidarity grant to Bahamas Methodist Habitat, the Disaster Ministry of the Bahamas Conference of the Methodist Church. This grant provides immediate, emergency short term funding to address the basic human needs of those affected by this catastrophic storm.

You can help by continuing to pray for those affected by Hurricane Dorian and by making a donation to the response efforts.
