Church Party Ministry

Loving Our Community, One Tuesday at a Time

For more than 50 years, the Church Party Ministry at FUMC Dothan has been a joyful expression of God’s love. Founded by Mr. Hugh Spann in 1970, this ministry continues to serve K–12 school-age children in our community with fun, fellowship, and faithful care. 

We follow the Dothan City School calendar and meet every Tuesday from 6–7:30 p.m. During the school year, children gather at the church for a night full of recreation, dinner, games, and joy—while giving parents a little time to themselves. Some transportation assistance may be available depending on location and volunteer availability. 

Each week is a midweek highlight for both the children and the incredible volunteers who make it all happen! 

Church Party is fully volunteer-led, powered by dedicated individuals from our church and the wider community who pour love and energy into every gathering. Thanks to the generosity of FUMC Dothan, we also host exciting celebrations throughout the year—like Valentine’s Day, Easter, Halloween, and Christmas parties—and every child’s birthday is joyfully celebrated. 

We’re so thankful for the continued support of our congregation and community. Whether you’re looking to volunteer your time or register a child to participate, we’d love to hear from you!

Come help us make Tuesday nights the best night of the week—for some truly amazing kids!
