Book Drop bins will also be available in the Floris parking lot for convenient 24/7 drop-off. \nWhy Donate?\nMany of us have shelves\, closets\, and storage boxes filled with items we no longer use.

Educational materials could help support students and lifelong learners. \nBy participating\, you will: \n✓ Declutter your home\n✓ Keep usable items out of landfills\n✓ Support literacy and education\n✓ Help valuable resources reach new audiences \nStart Gathering Today\nTake a few minutes to look through your bookshelves\, storage bins\, and media collections.

SUMMARY:Andrea Finch - What the Bees See
DESCRIPTION:Experience Art that Reveals Creation Through the Eyes of Bees\nThe Floris Art Gallery invites you to experience this month’s featured installation—What the Bees See—a vibrant and immersive exploration of the natural world through the perspective of bees. \nThis striking exhibit offers a fresh way of seeing creation\, drawing attention to the beauty\, complexity\, and quiet wonder found in flowers\, movement\, light\, and the delicate ecosystems that sustain life. Inspired by the unique vision and role of pollinators\, the installation encourages viewers to slow down and notice what is often overlooked in the world around us. \nThrough color\, texture\, and layered artistic expression\, the work reflects the rhythm of nature itself—how bees move with purpose\, gather with intention\, and participate in a cycle of growth and renewal that sustains the earth. Each piece becomes an invitation not only to observe\, but to reflect on the interconnectedness of creation and our place within it. \nAs you move through the gallery\, you’ll encounter a space designed for contemplation and curiosity. The installation invites you to engage your senses and consider how beauty is often revealed in the smallest details—in the patterns of petals\, the movement of wings\, and the quiet harmony of living systems working together. \nMore than an art display\, this exhibit is an experience of attention and awareness. Whether you are an art enthusiast\, a nature lover\, or simply seeking a moment of peace and inspiration\, What the Bees See offers a space to pause\, reflect\, and reconnect with the world in a meaningful way. \nWhen you visit the Floris Art Gallery this month\, you are invited into a moment of wonder—where creativity opens new ways of seeing and where the natural world becomes a source of reflection\, gratitude\, and awe. \nCome and experience art that draws you closer to creation\, to community\, and to the beauty that surrounds us every day. \nLearn more about this month’s exhibition and explore past featured exhibits on our Art Gallery page. \nThe Floris Art Gallery also welcomes artists in our community to share their gifts. If you are interested in submitting your own work for consideration\, we invite you to apply to exhibit with us. \nCome and experience art that draws you closer to God\, to creation\, and to community.

SUMMARY:HCW Mission Trip
DESCRIPTION:October Mission Trip: A Journey of Service\, Growth\, and Transformation\nTravel Dates: July 19 – August 1\nThe October Mission Trip is more than a travel experience—it is an invitation to step into a season of meaningful service\, deep connection\, and personal transformation. From July 19 through August 1\, participants will join together in a shared mission to serve communities\, build relationships\, and actively live out their faith in tangible ways. \nThis journey is designed for individuals who feel called to step outside of their everyday routines and into an experience that challenges\, stretches\, and renews them. Whether you are a seasoned mission participant or considering your very first trip\, this opportunity offers a powerful space to grow spiritually while making a real impact in the lives of others. \nThroughout the trip\, participants will engage in hands-on service projects that respond to the real needs of the community. These may include supporting local ministries\, assisting with outreach programs\, engaging in community development efforts\, and partnering with local leaders to strengthen ongoing initiatives. Each day will offer opportunities not only to serve\, but also to listen\, learn\, and build authentic relationships with the people and communities being served. \nIn addition to the service work\, this trip is also a deeply formative spiritual experience. Time will be set aside for reflection\, group connection\, prayer\, and debriefing\, allowing participants to process what they are seeing and experiencing together. Many who have participated in past mission trips describe the experience as life-shaping—marked by a renewed sense of purpose\, deeper faith\, and a clearer understanding of how they are called to serve in their everyday lives. \nThe October Mission Trip is also an opportunity to journey in community. You will not be going alone. You will be surrounded by a team of individuals who are also seeking growth\, connection\, and a deeper expression of faith through service. The relationships formed during this time often extend far beyond the trip itself. \nIf you are looking for an experience that will challenge your perspective\, deepen your faith\, and allow you to make a meaningful difference\, this mission trip may be the next step for you. \nTo learn more about past mission experiences and stories\, visit our Sierra Leone mission blog:https://www.florisumc.org/sierra-leone-mission-trip/#section-sierra-leone-blog \nFor broader information about our mission partnerships and trip overview\, visit:https://www.florisumc.org/sierra-leone-mission-trip/ \nJoin us July 19–August 1 as we step into a shared journey of service\, learning\, and transformation.

SUMMARY:UpsideDown Moments Clothing Drive
DESCRIPTION:UpsideDown Moments Clothing Drive\nSecond Sunday of Every Month \nA simple act of generosity can make a lasting difference in someone’s life. Each month\, Floris United Methodist Church invites you to participate in our UpsideDown Moments Clothing Drive\, an ongoing opportunity to share hope\, dignity\, and compassion with members of our community who are experiencing hardship. \nOn the second Sunday of every month\, we welcome donations of gently used clothing for individuals of all ages\, from infants to adults. Whether it’s children’s clothing that has been outgrown\, professional attire you no longer wear\, warm coats\, everyday essentials\, or seasonal apparel\, your donations can become a meaningful blessing to someone in need. \nCollected clothing is carefully gathered throughout the quarter and then distributed through Grace Ministry\, helping individuals and families access quality clothing in a welcoming and supportive environment. Your generosity not only helps meet a practical need but also reminds our neighbors that they are seen\, valued\, and loved. \nBefore donating\, please ensure that all clothing is clean\, in good condition\, and ready to be worn by its next owner. Thoughtfully donated items help us serve others with dignity while making the distribution process easier for our volunteers. \nThe UpsideDown Moments Clothing Drive is a wonderful way to practice faithful stewardship by giving new purpose to items you no longer need. Every donation\, no matter how small\, contributes to a larger mission of caring for our community and sharing Christ’s love through acts of service. \nJoin us each month and help make a difference—one article of clothing at a time. Together\, we can provide comfort\, encouragement\, and hope for those facing difficult circumstances. \nFor more information about the clothing drive or how you can get involved\, please contact Debbie Cali.

SUMMARY:Pastor Drew's Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Pastor Drew’s Book Club: Unapologetic\nWednesdays | 7:00–8:30 PM\nAugust 19\, August 26 & September 2\nFloris United Methodist Church \nHave you ever struggled to explain why your faith still matters in today’s world? Or wondered how to talk about Christianity in a way that is honest\, thoughtful\, and grounded in real life? Join Pastor Drew for a three-week book club as we read and discuss Unapologetic: Why\, Despite Everything\, Christianity Can Still Make Surprising Emotional Sense by Francis Spufford. \nRather than offering a traditional defense of Christianity\, Spufford shares a heartfelt and refreshingly honest account of what it means to follow Christ in a world where faith is often misunderstood or dismissed. With his signature wit\, insightful storytelling\, and engaging writing style\, he explores the emotional and spiritual realities of Christian belief\, acknowledging both the beauty and the challenges of living a life of faith. His approach is thoughtful\, authentic\, and often humorous\, making this an engaging read for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of Christianity. \nWhether you’ve been a Christian for many years\, are exploring faith for the first time\, or simply enjoy meaningful conversations about life and belief\, this book club offers a welcoming space to read\, reflect\, and learn together. Pastor Drew will guide each week’s discussion\, creating opportunities to explore the book’s themes\, ask questions\, share perspectives\, and encourage one another in faith. \nThis three-week series is a wonderful opportunity to connect with others\, deepen your understanding of the Christian faith\, and engage with a thought-provoking book in a relaxed and welcoming environment. We encourage participants to attend all three sessions to get the most out of the discussion\, but you’re welcome to join us even if you can’t make every week. \nRegistration is encouraged so we can plan accordingly. Reserve your spot using the registration link and join us as we journey through Unapologetic together. \nRegister Here \nWe look forward to seeing you on Wednesday evenings from 7:00–8:30 PM at Floris United Methodist Church!
