Community Christmas Missions

We will hand out 40 Christmas bags to children living in local motels on Friday. These bags are full of games, school supplies, toys, books, and candy.


We will also give out 80 food bags to families and individuals in these hotels that are full of peanut butter, jelly, macaroni and cheese, canned meats, shampoo, soap, and more.


As we deliver these bags of love, we will have coats and blankets to help battle the cold and hot meals provided by the Macon Rescue Mission.


Our prayer is that the needy in our community will see the love and hope of Jesus as we serve Him.


Thank you to each person who donated toys, school supplies, coats, blankets, and financial gifts. Because of you, this is possible. We are the Lord's hands and feet.


We also want to thank the volunteers who helped pack these bags, those who will help deliver, and those who have helped organize.


Please be in prayer as we go out into the community and love like Jesus loves.

Making a Commitment in 2023

As followers of Jesus, we give out of thanksgiving for what God has done and as a sign of faithfulness, devotion, and commitment to God. To do so may require taking a step of faith out of our comfort zone, but there is joy, peace, and blessings that come when we rely upon the Lord and choose to honor him.


We hope that you will prayerfully consider how God may be calling you to contribute financially to Perry UMC in the coming year. 


You can make a commitment to PUMC in several different ways. We have cards in the church office and in the narthex of the Sanctuary. You may also go to perryumc.org/give to make an online commitment for 2022.


If you would like a commitment card mailed to you or if you have any questions, please contact the church office at 478-987-1852.

We have several ways to support our ministries with your gifts and offerings.
