Whether it's furnishing building supplies and other materials or working through the Local Missions Subcommittee as a volunteer, local missions are opportunities for everyone in the church to help.
Weekly Service Opportunities
- Monday evenings at Neighbor for Neighbor Medical Clinic
- Sunday and/or Thursday evenings at St. Luke’s Redemption Prison Ministries
- Any time through Boston Avenue’s Homebound Ministries
Monthly Service Opportunities
Respite Care - caring for children with handicapping conditions and their siblings so that parents can have an evening off.
Quilting for Others - its mission is just what the name implies.
Since 2002, our quilters have provided quilts for Stork’s Next, Methodist Manor, Exodus House, and Circle of Care. Donated quilts have been auctioned off at the Boys’ Ranch Rodeo and Maranatha’s Christmas auction to raise money for missions. The group has great fun working together, and always encourages visitors, including anyone who is interested but has never quilted before. Donations of material or money to purchase supplies are always appreciated. The group meets the first Friday of every month from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Members of Quilting for Others show off their creations.
Day Center for the Homeless - serving meals on a regular basis.
