First United Methodist Church of San Benito
Hi.
We're young, we're old. We're far from perfect and still learning to live more like Jesus. We believe the Lord has brought us together to be more and do more than we can alone. We'd love to share everything we know with you.

Your Giving Makes A Difference
Our goal for apportionments this year is shown in this graphic. These funds allow FUMCSB to not only support missions and ministries at the local district level, but also the state, country and global levels.

Our connectional system gives us the opportunity to be part of a global network of giving and support. For a brief explanation of how our mission shares are used, click on the PDF link below.

This Month on the Extra Mile...
January Rail Offering- In His Steps Ministry
Every month we are given the opportunity to reach out further than we could alone.
100% of this month's Rail Offering will go to...
​
the In His Steps Ministry. This ministry is dedicated to providing new shoes for school children across San Benito. By meeting with families annually to outfit students and their siblings, we see firsthand the impact of your generosity. To continue this beautiful mission, FUMCSB relies on the support of our congregation, the local community, and our seasonal Winter Texan family. Together, we can ensure no child in our schools goes without.​​
​
If you choose to give, please designate your gift here online or in church as "January's Rail Offering" or "In His Steps". Thank you and God bless.
