Summer mission

Our Summer Mission for St. Paul's UMC will be the Idaho Falls Summer Food Service Program (SFSP). The program is sponsored by school districts, local government agencies, camps, or public/private nonprofit organizations. Many meal sites also have games and reading activities to build healthy bodies and minds. The SFSP helps our children return to school in the fall ready to learn.


We are partnering with New Day Lutheran to provide food for underprivileged children in our area. Sign-up below to be a part of this new endeavor. Thank you so much for your interest in this ministry to our community and for your partnership.


You can click here to sign-up to help make the meal or serve the meal.


If you are not able to help with the food prep or food service but would like to donate to support the cause, click here. All of the funds donated here will be used only for the Summer Food Service Program. It will not be used for anything else.

Thank you for your support!
