Serve: Be the Hands and Feet of Christ
At Cumberland United Methodist Church (CUMC), our mission is to connect with our neighbors and serve our local, national, and global communities. 1 Corinthians 12:12-27 reminds us that just as the body is made up of many parts, each with its unique function, so too does the church come together to carry out Christ’s mission. Every part of the body is essential, and no part is more important than the other. When we serve, we become a vital part of that body, working together to reflect Christ’s love and purpose.
1 Corinthians 12:27: “Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it.” (New International Version)
Each of us has been blessed with unique talents and gifts to worship and honor our Lord Jesus Christ. These gifts, no matter how big or small, are all equally important. As we serve others, we not only share God’s love but also experience the joy and fulfillment that comes from being part of something greater than ourselves.
When we use our gifts in service to others, we help further Christ’s kingdom, spreading love, hope, and grace in ways that make a difference in the lives of those we serve—and in our own hearts as well.
Below are the various communities we serve. Join us in making an impact!
