Mission Opportunities in Our Community

Want to help? As an individual or a small group, local missions can use your help. This is a great way to get involved in helping others in deep need beyond the walls of the church – to be the helping hands and feet in the body of Christ.

Local Missions

Union Mission Ministries

Volunteer Orientation – First-time volunteers must attend a Volunteer Orientation to learn more about the ministry, our volunteer guidelines, and how to get involved.

We are looking for volunteers for a group project to help take down Christmas decorations in the Men’s Shelter and the Overton Building in early January (date TBD). Please see Bob Hunt if you or your small group would like to help with this ministry as part of our Acts 1:8 Mission focus on Union Missions in January.
