Outreach ministry

Our outreach, or missions, ministry seeks to find and help those in need.

Our outreach ministry works to help those who are in need by maintaining a food pantry and supporting local aid organizations.  Our missions also go to support the national and international relief efforts of the greater United Methodist church.  Examples include support for Tsunami and Hurricane Katrina relief, supporting an annual VIM (Volunteers in Mission) trip to storm damaged areas, and building a HOPE fund to repair or rebuild damaged churches.

One exciting new project undertaken recently was to identify local families in need of some help and provide them with a Chrismas basket of gifts and food.  In just our first year, this effort was very successful... reaching several families and over 12 children!

 Our missions work is always in need of new ideas and the support of volunteers and money.  We welcome your help in our work to help all of God's children in need, spiritual and physical.
