CAMPING FOR CHILDREN AND YOUTH
We at Jacksonville Community United Methodist Church support our
youth and children in attending summer camp through the Upper New
York Conference Camps. This includes Casowasco, the camp most
frequently attended. We currently offer two possibilities for financial
assistance.
--The Alec C. Proskine Fund, will reimburse each camper $200.00
regardless of how many weeks the camper attends camp each summer. These funds are
available to attend any camp in the Upper New York Conference. The expectation is that
families will pay the cost of camp initially. After camp, each child must write a hand written
thank you note to Mr. Proskine. Thank you notes are collected and mailed, with a cover letter,
to Mr. Proskine by the church camping coordinator (currently Amy Moe). A check is then
mailed to the church, deposited, and the appropriate funds distributed to the family after the
camp experience. The camping coordinator will keep a list of camp attendees, parent names
and addresses, and when received, a copy of the thank you notes.
--In addition, Jacksonville Church may be able to help with camping costs. Families will need
to let the camping coordinator know of planned camp attendance. The mission committee will
decide whether funds are available and determine the amount to be given. Priority will be
given to children and youth who have been actively involved with our church during the
previous year. Children and youth who attend camp with Proskine fund and Jacksonville
Church support will be expected to share a bit about camp experiences with the congregation
in the fall.

CHILDREN'S PROGRAMS
A team of committed volunteers has developed a strong and very well attended children’s Sunday School program here at JCUMC. The program runs from September through June. Children attend the first half of the regular worship service which includes a children’s message followed by the collection of the Noisy Offering. Children collect loose change from congregation members in tin buckets which make a lot of noise, thus the name, Noisy Offering. We conclude with a prayer of thanks and the children then go to their respective Sunday School classes for age appropriate lessons and activities while the adults enjoy the remainder of the service.

Founded in 1988 by Sara Pines, MSW, Ph.D., Friendship Donations Network’s mission is to rescue fresh nutritious food from stores and farms that would otherwise be thrown away and redistribute it to neighbors in need. This is accomplished by an extensive network of volunteers who pick up donations of mostly perishable excess and day-old food and deliver them to pantries and programs that serve in excess of 2,100 people weekly. We divert over 500,000 lbs. of good food from the landfill each year!Find us on Facebook:
