Missions

Fairhope United Methodist Church has a history of commitment to missions. Through financial support and hands-on ministry, our membership seeks to do God's will both locally and abroad. We strive to equip people in ways that will allow them to serve in this ministry based on their spiritual gifts, desires, and availability.

We financially support several missionaries  to help them spread the good news of Jesus Christ in foreign lands. We send mission teams annually to Costa Rica and Mexico to lend aid and support to missionaries in their work.  We have also served in India and Ghana.  We support, facilitate, and send medical and construction mission teams to Haiti.

Locally, there is much to be done and our mission team works diligently to find projects to allow our volunteers to be involved in some aspect of mission work. One way we help locally is through supporting Ecumenical Ministries, a local agency that ministers to people who need help. This service provides food, clothing, and appropriate monetary relief.

Fairhope UMC is proud to partner with Family Promise, a ministry that serves the homeless families of Baldwin County.

The Fairhope UMC Disaster Response team seeks to prepare for and respond to disasters in our area.  The team is active in preparation and relief efforts.

Youth Mission Work is also a part of who we are and what we do. The youth of our church have been instrumental in reaching out to various regions within the United States.  Youth are active in local missions and service to the immediate community.
