Ministries

Service

There is a 9:30 AM Sunday Service during which Sunday School classes are held and infant care is provided.

Music

We have a new Director of Music this year, Karen Hitt, who not only is the organist/instrumental arranger but also directs five choirs - Senior, Youth (Grades 6-12), Junior (Grades 1-5), Carol (K to 4 years), and Wesleyan Ringers.

Christian Education

During the school year, Sunday School students come at 9:30 AM to worship in the sanctuary with their parents. After the Children’s Message students go out to their grade-level classrooms: Pre-School - Grade 1 Stepping Stones (ground floor), Grades 2-3 T-4 (top floor), Grades 4-5 T-3 (top floor), Grades 6-8 T-2 (top floor), Grades 9-12 G-1 (ground floor). We request that parents of preschoolers through third grade call at the classroom to collect their children, before going to Coffee Hour. During the summer (June 17 - Sept. 2), we will hold a One-room Sunday School. Children entering grades preschool through fifth attend Sunday School together. There are age-appropriate materials for each lesson. We also have Elementary, Junior and Senior High Youth Groups and Adult Education.

Library

A library consisting of over 2000 volumes and periodicals for those thirsting to enlarge their spiritual background.

UMC Women

The local United Methodist Women are outstanding in their work for the church. The proceeds they obtain from the Rummage Sale in the spring and the Election Day Fair in the fall are used in many diverse mission projects - local, national and international. For more information visit the UMW Q & A.

Fellowship Circle

The Fellowship Circle is a group of church members that meets in the evening, on the third Monday of the month. If you would like to join us at a meeting, please speak to the hostess. Sometimes we form a carpool at the church parking lot. This year, our programs will discuss women in the Bible, with a different woman to be discussed at each meeting.

Weekday Nursery

Fishkill United Methodist Church also provides weekday nursery. Contact Stepping Stones Pre-School at 896-5453.
