Serving With Purpose

The Village of Barrington is celebrating 250 years since the Declaration of Independence and has invited Barrington UMC to join the July 4th parade! If you’d like to march, help decorate, or be part of the fun, we’d love to hear from you. Use the link below to say you can help!

Celebrate the Fourth with a Barrington UMC T-shirt! Wear it in the parade or around town and help share our welcoming community wherever you go. Don’t wait too long — shipping can take 2–3 weeks, so order soon to make sure your shirt arrives before the parade!

Place your t-shirt order here!

The week before Labor Day, our mission team will travel to the Spirit Lake Nation, where we will spend the week helping harvest their garden and preserving the vegetables in cooperation with The Journey at Spirit Lake, the local community college, and ND State University.

$400 per person will cover lodging and meals at the Ministry Center. Participants will carpool together as we work closely with the community. If you are interested in joining the team, please let us know. If you cannot attend but would like to help with travel costs and an additional gift to this ministry, please mark your donation Mission 2026. Participants must be at least 18 years of age.
