Herndon UMC's mission is to serve and share God's Love in community.

Be a Neighbor

These are unprecedented times but they offer us many opportunities to serve and share God's Love with our neighbors. If you are looking for ways to offer assistance, there are opportunities here (to the right on desktop or below on mobile) and more listed below under Opportunities to Serve. If you have another idea or need some help choosing, please contact a staff member.
