Kids Hope
A national award winning mentoring program was started with Eastern Tomek Elementary and the Fenton United Methodist Church in the fall of 2011. Volunteer mentors and prayer partners from the church and children have time together each week to just talk, play games, or work on school lessons. The goal is to offer extra support to children who are identified by the teacher. The mentor will be with the same child until he/she is in sixth grade. The principal and staff are very appreciative for the extra support. If you would like to serve in this exciting program as either a mentor or a prayer partner, please contact Noreen Wood 810-701-4046

Crop Walk
The Fenton United Methodist Church is an active participant in the Crop Walk, a Church World Service event in which neighbors walk together to take a stand against hunger in our world. Together we raise awareness and funds for international relief and development, as well as local hunger-fighting. Ministry Coordinator: Don Isenberg at disenb@yahoo.com

Sewing Group
The Sewing Group of FUMC has 5 projects we work on during the year. We make Prayer Blankets for our church members and friends, blankets for the Ennis Children Center in Flint which cares for foster children, children's nightgowns and pj sets for Midwest Distribution Center, and pjs for children at Children's Haven International in Mexico, and blankets for new children coming into Kids Hope each year. Anyone who likes to sew for missions is welcome.
We meet the 4th Wed, of each month at Elaine Lantz's home. Any questions about our group, call Elaine at (810) 629 0757
