Fairfield Grace UMC Midnight Run Service Trip
Saturday, April 23rd – Sunday, April 24th
Each spring, our Fairfield Grace Youth Group holds a collection drive for clothing and toiletries. We sort and label all donations and bring them, along with a hot meal and packed lunch, to the homeless in New York City late at night through the organization Midnight Run.
How can you participate?

Join us to help prepare sandwich lunches for the homeless that we will be taking with us that night into New York City on Saturday, April 23rd from 5:00-8:00 PM at Fairfield Grace. This is a great service opportunity! Dinner will be served. Please RSVP here so that we know how much dinner to prepare (it only takes 1 minute!): Middle School Meeting RSVP – April.
