Mission Ministry

Mission Statement: To provide mission opportunities of education, witness, service and giving for all participants of the Fredericksburg UMC, so that all may fulfill their responsibility to spread the Gospel.

Fredericksburg United Methodist Church has long enjoyed a congregation committed to spreading God's love outside the walls of our local Church.  Over the years, this outreach has directly touched people and communities throughout the United States and the world.

Mission in the 21" century is to everywhere from everywhere.  Mission is with others not to others.  It is not just us sending missionaries overseas, but all of the churches everywhere around the world working together.  The Administrative Board decided that in 2001 Fredericksburg United Methodist Church should enlarge its vision and become more committed to the missionary Outreach of the United Methodist Church.
