Since the middle 1950's, Saraland UMC has had a food booth at the Greater Gulf State Fair.  Our first year at the Fair, Elvis Presley was the featured singer!  Of course, his popularity was only beginning, but many at the church can still remember the occasion with notoriety.  We have manned the booth each year with church members.  Some of those members actually use their vacations to work at and manage the booth.  In the early years, we used the profits to help our church programs; however, now all of the profits go to missions locally and around the world.  This annual mission fund-raiser raises between ten to fifteen thousand dollars each year.  We feel that we are truly a missions church!
