Residing Hope

The United Methodist Children’s Home in Enterprise and Madison Florida is now known as “Residing Hope”. Every 5th Sunday we collect a special offering for Residing Hope in support of the children they serve and the ministries they offer. If you would like to donate to Residing Hope, we will collect a special offering on Sunday, June 29. Please make checks payable to Centenary UMC and place the phrase “Residing Hope” on the memo line. We thank you for supporting this impactful ministry.

Pastor’s Discretionary Fund

On the First Sunday of every month, as we receive communion, we offer gifts to our Pastor’s Discretionary Fund. This Fund is used to help individuals in need with their bills or groceries. To donate to this fund, you can simply place your gift on the railing when you come forward for communion. We thank you for considering a donation to this fund! Every first Sunday of the Month we celebrate communion together as a church family. During communion, you are welcome to bring an offering forward with you to the communion rail. This extra-mile gift goes to the Pastor’s Discretionary Fund, which allows for us to help individuals with personal financial needs and expenses. We thank you for considering this special offering and supporting this ministry.

We hope you will join us as we drive out hunger together in our community.
