Society of St. Vincent de Paul in Fredericksburg, Virginia.

The Food for Life Program
*Eastland’s United Methodist Men participate in the Fredericksburg Area Food Bank’s “Food for Life” Program.   To qualify for the program an individual must be 60 years of age or older and income qualified based on the USDA Income Guidelines.  The program no longer accepts anyone that is on SSI or SSDI and falls under the age of 60.  All participants that are currently on the program will be grandfathered in.  These changes will allow the FAFB to continue to use USDA foods, have access to more grants through Feeding America and be able to provide more nutritious foods along with produce and dairy. Food distribution is the third Tuesday of each month from 10:00 a.m.– 4:00 p.m. in the church office. See Frances Vaughn or Bill Todd if you have questions about the program or would like to complete an application.  Questions? – call the church office 540-898-6430.

 
Youth and Children

Vacation Bible School
*Join us for summertime fun and learn about Jesus, too.  Adult and older youth helpers are invited to join in the fun. Do you like to have fun? Vacation Bible School is a way to have fun and learn about Jesus. Teachers and all kinds of helpers with arts and crafts, snacks and music are needed.  If teaching isn't your thing, you can still take part! Donations of supplies are needed. 

Youth Group
*We meet on the second or third Sunday of each month for all kinds of fun events. Check the calendar and the youth page for details.
