Service Opportunities

• Thanksgiving Lunch held at First United Methodist Church on Thanksgiving Day. This meal is for those in the community of Salem who have no place to go for Thanksgiving. Helpers prepare and serve the meal on Thanksgiving Day. Lunch is from 12-2 with preparation taking place in the morning.
• 12 Days of Christmas each year the community of First UMC take on a needy family and give them Christmas in a very special way. Each night for the 12 days before Christmas this family receives gifts, meals and other necessities in an anonymous fashion. Help is needed in purchasing, wrapping and delivering gifts throughout the month of December. This is an awesome way to get into the spirit of Christmas.
