FISH Mission
The month of May gives us the opportunity to support the local FISH mission. In 1969 the methodist men of Troy were looking for a project to reach others in the Troy community. As a result, FISH was organized and continues reaching out to the residents of Troy. FISH receives no funding from sources other than support from generous donors. All funding remains in Miami County and funds are used to help those in need pay for rent, utilities, gasoline and prescriptions.Ladies Fellowship
