Ways to Get Involved
Worshiping and serving God are the primary ministries of our church. Whether people attend our weekly worship service, come for a funeral or memorial service, join the hand bell choir, or drive up to see the outdoor ‘live Nativity’ scene before Christmas, we offer a variety of ways for people to join together in worshiping God. Service opportunities range from: collecting food and personal care items for the food pantry; working at the church’s food wagon at the Waupaca County Fair; ringing bells for the ‘red kettle’ campaign; collecting school supplies for area students; raking leaves for older members; helping people have Thanksgiving meals; and helping at the food wagon at area events.
Our congregation partners with Samaritan Counseling Center of the Fox Valley, Inc. to provide a counseling center (here in our building) that serves the community year-round. CAP Services’ offers Head Start classes for children ages 2, 3 and 4 at our church during the school year. We also host one of the New London Park and Recreation Department’s community garden sites where residents can ‘rent a plot’ to put in a garden during the Summer.
Bible Study
During the year a variety of study groups are offered.
Please check our Calendar for groups and times and join us on the journey!
UMM - United Methodist Men
The United Methodist Men’s group enjoys working on projects around the church and grounds, and in the community. The group coordinates scheduling for the church’s food wagon which has been invited to many area events.
Proceeds from food sales support community causes and church needs.
UWF - United Women in Faith
Our United Women of Faith (UWF) help to raise both awareness and money for missions that directly aide women and children. The UWF coordinates funeral lunches, delivers gifts to those in local care facilities, and responds to local needs as they arise.
