Serve in the Community

Upcoming Seasonal Opportunities

Ongoing Community Partnerships

  • Mission of the Month

    Each month, the Missions Committee at FUMC Denton chooses a local or global non-profit or mission event to collect donations for. You can bring donations to worship or throughout the week.

  • First Meal

    On Sunday Mornings, our church offers a free breakfast to anyone who needs a meal. First Meal needs friends to serve breakfast, create community and build relationships, or donate money, breakfast items, or personal hygiene items.

  • Prayer Shawl Ministry

    Crocheters and knitters in our church make shawls, baby blankets, and lap robes. All of the items are blessed by one of our pastors, then each one is wrapped and delivered to someone in need or comfort.

  • Our Daily Bread

    Our Daily Bread feeds, shelters, and cares for the homeless and at-risk in our community while maintaining the dignity of our guests and offering opportunities for a new start. You can help by signing up to serve or offering financial support.

    Adult volunteers (ages 55+) can serve as Rockin’ Readers who read aloud to pre-K—3rd grade classes once a week at Rivera Elementary School. There are training opportunities to get involved at this partner school!

  • Communities in Schools

    CISNT is another way to support Rivera and other schools in Denton! Help CISNT surround students with a community of support, empowering them to stay in school and achieve in life.

  • Interfaith Ministries

    Interfaith Ministries provides assistance to the vulnerable in our community and to advocate for those in need of basic resources, including utility assistance, diapers and wipes, hygiene supplies, and referrals.
