MissionsVidalia First United Methodist Church shows concern for our neighbors both locally and in far away areas of the world. Some of the areas that we offer assistance in are: The Methodist Children's Home, Vashti, Wesley Glen, Salvation Army, Habitat for Humanity, and we sponsor a Foster Children's Day Camp in the summer. We contribute to the support of several missionaries. Missionaries supported are David and Jennifer Thompson - Peru, and David and Sue Pak - South Korea. In recent years, adult work teams have had hands-on experience in Central and South America. During the summer, we have a work team for youth and adults who go to a needy area in the Southeastern United States.
Habitat
for Humanity has started a house in our community. The Mission Comm. would like
to have a list of volunteers who would be willing to help a neighbor, by helping
build this house. Contact Robert Wilkerson 538-7741 or church office.
Construction has begun already (framing). We would like to have several teams
from our church.
