Welcome to Hedding United Methodist Church in Barre, Vermont
Upcoming Events
Outreach Ministries
Friday Night Community Supper
Great food! Great music! Great community! The doors open at 4:30 and dinner is served at 5:30! Live music keeps the community singing, clapping, and generally enjoying the time we spend together! Volunteers in the kitchen have as much fun as the guests! The food shelf is also open during this time.
Bread of Life Food Shelf
Shop for the food you want and need once each month. Volunteer with the team that helps stock shelves and checks in guests. Donate non-perishables or extra produce from your summer garden. Open on Wednesdays and Thursdays from 3:00 – 4:30 PM and on Fridays from 5:00 – 6:30 PM.

Rental Assistance and Deposits, Heating and Utilities Assistance, Medical Expense Assistance, Clothing Vouchers, Referrals for Other Resources, Case Management Team Participation, Coordination with Agencies and Programs, Health and Wellness Program Connections, Veterans Issues Assistance, and Community Service Opportunities. Wednesdays – Fridays by appointment with our Outreach Coordinator, Phyliss Azotea: (802) 261-1342
Diaper Depot
Since May 2023, we have collected and distributed thousands of diapers. Families come to the church and, with no questions asked, receive a package of diapers and some wipes. We are always in need of more. Diapers of all sizes, pull-ups, and wipes go out the door about as quickly as they arrive!
Visitation Ministry
Pastoral care, prayer, communion, and extending community to the sick or homebound is another way that we put our faith into action. Contact the church office to request a visit from Pastor Rae or a visitation team or simply click here to schedule a visit with the pastor. We are also asking for knitters, crocheters, and quilters to make prayer shawls for those in need of some extra prayer and love. These will be prayed over on a Sunday morning by our worshiping congregation.
Hedding United Methodist Church welcomes and celebrates our human family's diversity of race, ethnicity, age, faith history, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, economic status, relationship status, physical and mental ability and education. We affirm that all people are created in the image of God, and - as beloved Children of God - are worthy of God's love and grace.
