A recent mission project took place at Arcanum Faith United Methodist Church during the month of April in honor of Judith Fourman.

Judy, wife of Alan Fourman, was co-owner of the Ben Franklin store and familiar business and community leader in Arcanum. She was also a long time volunteer on the Faith UMC Missions Committee and helped to make a difference by helping with projects that touched people locally, across the United States, and globally. She was especially talented with sewing and creative crafts. She often worked on those projects while relaxing in her cabin in the Fourmans’ woods on Arcanum-Bears Mill Road.

Judy passed away on November 9, 2016. Her birthday was April 13th. In her honor, Faith Church has purchased “woods themed” gifts from Heifer International.

Included in the purchase are flocks of ducks/geese, tree seedlings, honeybees, schools of fish, and several trios of rabbits. Gifts to Heifer International bring promise to hungry families and the opportunity for a better life to the less fortunate.

The pastor of Arcanum UM Church is Tim Pieper. This mission minded church is located at 101 East South Street, Arcanum, Ohio.
