Rising Hope is our United Methodist mission church serving primarily the poor who live and work along the Route 1 corridor south of Alexandria. Over the years Washington Street Church has strongly supported Rising Hope’s ministries with the poor.
Washington Street Church members collect items for Rising Hope –
• 100 angel tree gifts to fulfill Christmas wishes for children and parents
• staple food goods and warm clothing and blankets
• baby items — diapers, baby food, toiletry care items, and small toys
Members are also “delivery angels” transporting these donations from our church to Rising Hope. The WSUMC bins fill up quickly with your generous donations.
Virlinda Snyder is the WSUMC Rising Hope Coordinator if you have questions.
