FUMC has staffed a Meals on Wheels delivery route for many years. A wonderful group of 40+ members and friends volunteer for this local mission. We go out in teams of two; each team delivers one day a month. Time commitment is about 1½ hours (10:30am-12noon, M-F). We currently need volunteers who can help on a regular basis or as a substitute when it fits your schedule. Registration and training are required and will be provided.
