We are a Worship+2 church, which means we worship, learn, and serve! Below we are listing ways to serve our congregation, community, and beyond during the COVID-19 outbreak. Thank you for continuing to be the hands and feet of Jesus.
SERVE OTHERS
PUMC Missions
Even though we are unable to meet and worship together, the mission team continues to support ongoing ministries and missionaries. Please remember to continue with your support to missions by writing missions in the memo line of your check or you can give to missions online.

Donate for Disaster Relief
The 2020 hurricane season is well underway with a record-setting number of early and large storms impacting communities already strained by the coronavirus pandemic. Please help UMCOR respond to the urgent requests from those in need of relief.

Donate Crackers & Fruit Cups
We continue to honor our weekly commitment to the Food Bank to provide 100 cracker packs and 60 fruit cups to provide snacks for children and seniors in need. Donations can be left in the plastic bin by the front door of the church. They will be picked up daily.

BE SERVED
Pastor's Discretionary Fund
If you find yourself experiencing financial hardship during this difficult season of social distancing, please do not hesitate to contact Pastor David directly to discuss your need and how our church might best support you. All conversations are confidential, and all assistance comes from the continued generosity of our congregation.
Parents of College Students
The congregational care team would like to remain in touch with your student no matter if they are on campus or learning remotely. Please send the name of the school they are attending along with their mailing address to Helen Moeser or the church office.
Congregational Care
“…serve one another in love…” –Galatians 5:13
In this uncertain and challenging time, the Congregational Care Team is here to assist our brothers and sisters in Christ. We have volunteers in place who are available to run errands and grocery shop. If you have a specific prayer need, email your request to pmartin54@nc.rr.com, and our team will pray for you. We will continue to reach out through cards and calls.
Please don’t hesitate to contact us if we can help in any way or if you would like to volunteer. Contact the church at pumc@pinehurstumc.org or Pam Martin at 910-400-5138 / pmartin54@nc.rr.com.

Under normal times, the men of F3 Sandhills are part of a national network of free, peer-led workouts for men. In times like this, we mobilize to serve our community.
We are offering a free, personalized, no-contact concierge service to pick up and deliver your prescriptions, groceries, or take out meals within the Southern Pines, Pinehurst and Aberdeen communities. Click here to learn more.
