Serve in Your Church

Use your unique gifts to help build the Kingdom.

With the initiation of the CUMC Community Garden, opportunities will be 
created for participation in planting and maintenance, clean up, and harvesting. 
Great fellowship time!

Your presence in the backyard is encouraged and will hopefully attract others to
the serenity of a space where they can find peace and prayerful time.

Care & Share is open Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays  and Saturdays to serve 
community members with their clothing and food needs. 
Volunteers and financial support appreciated.

Cookies are periodically delivered to the Children's Home in Greeneville, TN.
The next delivery date will be posted when scheduled.

The Traveling Library
operates periodically on Centenary grounds & at area schools.
Book preparation assistance  and food/donations are needed.
Book donations are always appreciated.

If you find you are not as physically active as you once were, there's always 
opportunity to communicate with church folks who are homebound or
in a nursing facility; live alone and don't get out much or may just
need contact with another person to receive comfort or to chat.
