During the week of January 17-24, 2027, WUMC will be serving as a host church in conjunction with Community of Faith Mission, a non-profit, faith-based organization offering a low barrier emergency shelter program that serves those experiencing homelessness in the Greater Williamsburg community during the coldest months of the year. We are seeking volunteers to serve those needing a warm place to stay and a hot meal.
