Missions & Compassion Ministries

FMC has a rich history of being involved in local and worldwide missions outreach. Educating adults, teens and children about reaching the lost with the Gospel is an intrinsic part of FMC’s Christian education.

The FMC congregation supports missionaries globally through World Gospel Mission, Churches of Christ in Christian Union, One Mission Society, Campus Crusade and United World Mission. Work teams are periodically scheduled for service projects in the States and foreign countries.

Local missions work consists of partnering with Maywood Mission, Foundation Shelters & Dinners and Inner City Mission. Support is offered through non-perishable food donations, clothing donations, volunteering to serve meals along with a brief devotional, adopting families for the Holidays, etc. Several adults also volunteer through Fairfield County Courts to oversee child visitation in divorce situations.

We are associated with and support Gideon’s International. A number of our men are members of this organization that distributes Bibles in 160 countries around the world. An annual presentation is scheduled to inform the congregation of their work.
