Ongoing Studies for Adults
You’re invited to attend our various ongoing Bible Studies and Adult Sunday School classes where you will learn about the Bible, Bible characters, application of the Bible to your life, and how to use your Bible.
Children’s Ministry
Children are invited to participate in Sunday School each Sunday for crafts, Bible stories, and learning how to use their Bibles.
There is a nursery for children under 3. Children are invited for a message just for them during worship. In addition, they are invited to sing from time to time in worship, enjoy a yearly Easter Egg Hunt and Carnival, attend Vacation Bible School in the summer, and to various other events just for them!
Youth Ministry
Youth are invited each Sunday for Sunday School and weekly for Youth group where they play games, eat dinner, and learn about the Bible.
Youth activities are scheduled year round – trips to movies, Six Flags, pool parties at church members’ homes, and more.
Each summer the youth go on a Mission Trip – Some years that’s closer to home, other years it’s out of state; it all depends on where the need may be for community service.
Women’s Ministry
The Women’s ministry hosts a women’s retreat each year. This is a great opportunity to fellowship with other women, and friends are always welcome!
Music Ministry
Each Christmas and Easter you are invited to sing in Dido’s choir! The choir rehearses for 5 weeks and performs a Christmas Cantata in December and on Christmas Eve, Palm Sunday, Holy Thursday, and Easter Sunday.
Samaritan House of Fort Worth
Once a month Dido serves dinner at Samaritan House, a home for the homeless and those with AIDS. If you would like to cook dinner or help serve please contact Chris Landmon HERE.
“The generous will themselves be blessed, for they share their food with the poor.” Proverbs 22:9
Snack Packs
Dido makes weekend snack packs for children who may not get a weekend meal at Eagle Mountain Elementary School. The entire church donates the food and comes together several times a year to put the snack packs together. They are delivered weekly to the school.
Community Link
Dido UMC serves the local food pantry through collecting food and volunteering weekly or monthly to serve food to the community. Please bring your food items to the church and place them in the boxes in the sanctuary foyer and near the Fellowship Hall doors. If you would like to volunteer please click HERE.
Honoring Veterans
The flag flying at the bottom of Dido’s property flies in honor of all veterans and is dedicated to the late Dorothy Schafernocker, known as Momma Nocker. Her son Michael served as a Sea Wolf during the Vietnam war – the Sea Wolves supported special operations missions and his specific duty was as a helicopter gunner.
With his death, Momma became a Gold Star Mom, a mother who lost a son or daughter in combat. For more than 4 decades, Momma tirelessly worked to inform America about the heroes who died while serving our country.
We honor our veterans at special services such as Memorial Day and Veteran’s Day. Be ready to be recognized if you have served! And THANK YOU!
Nigerian Mission
DIDO UMC supports a church congregation in Kona, Nigeria by providing funds to build a church building and through supporting the congregation with our prayers, assistance for food, clean water, electricity, and clothing.
