You’re invited to help fight hunger by preparing highly nutritious, dehydrated meals for use in crisis areas or school feeding programs around the world at the Rise Against Hunger Packing Event on August 18 from 1 to 3 p.m. in the Fayetteville First UMC gym.

What can you do?

  • Donate funds to pay for meals. Our packing event will prepare 30,000 meals (Cost has been paid to RAH. We want to replenish our mission accounts here at FFUMC). Mark check or online donations given to FFUMC for the event as “Rise Against Hunger.”
  • Fill a table with friends and family! Invite others to join you in this effort for two-hours of packing fun!
  • To keep things simple, we won’t have a churchwide pre-event lunch after the 11 AM service, but we will have a space set aside in the Fellowship Hall if you’d like to bring a meal to enjoy before packing. We’ll move from the Fellowship Hall at noon to the packing event at 1 p.m. Questions? Contact Suzie Lusk or the church office for more information. A nursery will be available with reservation by August 14: contact the church office.

All ages (from 4 years up) can help! Label bags, fill meal packets, seal, box — There is a job for you!
