Eastport United Methodist Church is a small church with a big impact on the community. Under the leadership of Rev. MaAn Barcello, the church has an active membership of about 120 members. It is involved in several major ministries and each winter, it houses 20 - 30 homeless men for one week so they have a safe and warm place to stay. On the third Wednesday of each month, the church also supplies food from the Anne Arundel County Food Bank to needy families in the community. Each August, the church draws a large crowd to its Peach Festival, which is a fundraiser that is open to anyone in the community who buys a ticket. It features a bake sale and sit-down dinner. Church members served about 650 dinners at the festival this past year.
