BEYOND OUR LOCAL COMMUNITY
Our mission support goes beyond our local community.
Below are the projects in the US that are supported though your giving to the General Fund and special offerings.
Red Bird Mission, Beverly, Kentucky
Red Bird Mission and Clinic have been providing ministries in this region of the Appalachian Mountains since 1921. Chronic poverty, lack of jobs, poor housing, and rugged mountainous terrain provide obstacles to a fuller life for the residents of this area. Red Bird Mission and Clinic strives to meet these needs through ministry in five areas: Education, Health and Wellness, Community Outreach, Economic Opportunity, and Community Housing Improvement.
Robeson County Church and Community Center, Lumberton, NC
The Robeson County Church and Community Center is God’s people at work together, reaching out in love to meet our neighbor’s needs in the name of Christ. The Robeson County Church and Community Center seeks to involve people across cultural, racial, class, and denominational barriers in partnership with each other to address social needs and to move in Christ’s name toward solutions.
United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR)
UMCOR is the humanitarian relief and development agency of the United Methodist Church, a worldwide denomination. Compelled by Christ, UMCOR responds to natural or human made disasters—those interruptions of such magnitude that they overwhelm a community’s ability to recover on its own.
