VISIT THE FLORIDA UNITED METHODIST CHILDREN'S HOME About the Florida United Methodist Children's Home The Florida United Methodist Children's Home (FUMCH) is a home to many abused or abandoned children ages 5-18. Family breakdown due to divorce, drug abuse, illness or death of a parent may be a factor for a child to be referred to the FUMCH. The religious life is vital to the program. Residents attend Sunday morning and Wednesday services where many children share leadership roles through sharing special music, participating as ushers or acolytes and some lead worship. "Residents use their tithes and offerings to support mission projects beyond the campus. By learning of and responding to the needs of others, the residents learn to care for themselves. The residents have the opportunity to commit themselves to a God who loves them and seeks to guide them to a full life." About 85% fo funding for the FUMCH is private sources. Because of strong support from churches, the Home is able to to maintain its Christian Ministry outreach commitment to children.
