Sunday School
Our children’s Sunday School program here at JCUMC runs from October through June. Children attend the first part of the regular worship service which typically includes a children’s message followed by the collection of the Noisy Offering (children collect loose change from congregation members that go to a different charity each week). Following a prayer of thanks, the children are invited to Sunday School classes which are held on the first and third Sundays of the month, and a craft Sunday on the second Sunday. Children may remain with their families during the worship service on the fourth Sunday. We also have nursery care for children under five as well as a youth group for middle schoolers.
United Women of Faith (formerly UMW)
Our church has a very active group of women who meet on the first Thursday each month from September - May for fellowship, support and community outreach. All women of Jacksonville Community Church are welcome to join us and participate in our various activities. Each month we also send cards to those who are recovering from illness or are otherwise housebound, or just need extra prayers. To learn more, visit United Women of Faith.
The Jacksonville Church Attic Thrift Shop
The Jacksonville Church Attic Thrift Shop is open 9:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m. on Saturdays. We are located at 1869 Trumansburg Road in the old schoolhouse next to the Jacksonville Community United Methodist Church.

Jacksonville Church's Mutual Aid Food Cabinet
Our Blue Cabinet, located at the entrance to our church parking area has become a regular stopping place for those who need food and supplies. We have a cabinet for non-perishable, unexpired food and supplies, and a cooler with ice to hold perishables in the summer months. All items in the cabinet have been donated by church members and neighbors and friends. The cabinet is open from May through November.
For those in our community who are in need of food, the Trumansburg Food Pantry is available every other Monday.
The sign-up process is quite easy, and there is also an emergency hotline for those who need assistance immediately
at 607-387-8260. A complete listing of food pantries and community meals in Tompkins County can be found at HSCTC.ORG/FOOD. Mission Statement
As people who are open to the call of Christ, we reaffirm our mission as a caring community, ministering to all,
including those who are sick, in poverty, in confusion and in bondage. We are deciated to proclaiming the Gospel
by word, deed and prayer; providing Christian Education for all, opportunity for fellowship, witness to the community
