Join us as we pack hygiene blessing bags for patients at Fredericksburg Christian Health Center (FCHC). Each bag will include essential toiletries and encouraging notes, sharing Christ's love tangibly. Please, if you feel comfortable, leave your phone number and/or Email to keep you in the loop with updates for this project. Important note about sign-ups: When you sign up for this outreach, the system reserves a volunteer spot specifically for you. If your plans change and you’re unable to attend, please remove your name as soon as possible. Even though our leadership team will still carry out the project, keeping unused spots reserved prevents others from serving their community. Releasing your spot allows someone else to step in and be part of the outreach. Thank you for being mindful and helping create space for everyone who feels called to serve 🤍
Fairy Godmother Project provides assistance to local families affected by childhood cancers. We will meet at the Aldi’s on Warrenton Road to shop for freezer meals; which will later be prepared for these families at their downtown location. After shopping for the groceries we will deliver to their office in downtown and pray over all the food. This a family friendly project!
Join Stafford County Sheriff’s Sgt. Curtis and Stafford R.I.S.E. at the Super 8 Motel to provide food, hot meals, clothing, prayer, and connect people to resources. We will help people at the clothing table, help distribute food from the Food Bank truck, serve hot meals, or help with any other area that is needed.
Join us for our Mayfield Community adopt-a-block at W.L Harris playground. We'll start by quickly cleaning up the playground/ park area. Then we will be serving residents food/cookout, playing games, having a raffle, having a Bible lesson, creating a fun environment for the kiddos, and more, all while spreading the love of Jesus. Some may choose to go door knock together to give out food, gift bags, resources, bibles and prayer to people living in the community. Others will be at the park. Please come join us! It will be fun and safe for all ages. Bring your kids if you’d like! We need people for all sorts of tasks. If you feel led to serve in a particular area, please let us know! If you would like to bring a fun thing to the project like an arts and craft table or anything else you think would be fun, we would love to hear it! 540-455-5843 (Jordan)
We will prepare and serve the community dinner for the downtown homeless or formally homeless community. This is the community dinner facilitated by Micah Ecumenical Ministries. Dinner is served from 4-5:30 pm at the Fredericksburg Presbyterian Church Fellowship Hall which is accessed from the Charles St parking lot behind the church, across from the Truist Bank parking lot. Wear closed-toe shoes and plan to stay the entire time to help with clean-up. Children are welcome but I do not recommend bringing children under 4 or 5.
We have a beautiful opportunity to be the hands and feet of Jesus right in our own community. We are setting up a "Hospitality Hub" along the historic Canal Trail to serve our Fredericksburg neighbors. We will provide refreshments and offer a moment of prayer to anyone who needs encouragement. Wear Your Mission: "Paint the Town Red" Shirt We want to stand out as a team of hope! I am coordinating the Paint the Town Red t-shirts for everyone serving. Action Step: If you don't have a Paint The Town Red shirt, message me with your t-shirt size as soon as possible. I want to make sure I have your shirt ready so we can represent our mission together! We truly value your heart for service. We understand that "life happens." If an emergency or change of plans prevents you from coming, please know there is no judgment! However, please remove yourself from the project listing if you can't make it. This allows us to open that "spot of service" to another volunteer who is waiting for an opportunity to serve. Want to stay in the Loop with upcoming volunteer opportunities?

Strong foster, adoptive & kinship families are needed for providing safe, loving homes for children in crisis. On average, 50% of foster families quit within the first year, but when supported by volunteers from a local church, 90% continue beyond the one-year mark. Care Communities support these families in practical, hands-on ways, helping them to know they are not alone in their parenting journey. This support can look like meals, care packages, notes of encouragement, play dates, mentoring, help with yard work, etc. Care Communities are a great opportunity for small groups to serve together! If you would like to be a part of supporting one of these local families caring for vulnerable children, please sign up to receive more information.
