Outreach Ministry

The outreach ministry team offers many volunteer opportunities to help our community as a congregation. Many of these offer a chance for your to be actively involved with “hands on” work. These and other programs we also support financially.  There is something for everyone if you choose to be involved.

Loving our neighbors

We love sharing our love with the teachers and students at Anthony, David Brewer & Lansing Schools.In the fall of 2026, we provided nearly 300 filled backpacks to the community for back-to-school activities. Our Christmas Angel project is always a blessing to kids who might not otherwise get a Christmas.  We occasionally provide meals to the teachers to show how much we appreciate them.  We cannot outgive God!

Camp Horizon

Each October, a group travels to Camp Horizon, a Methodist camp located near Arkansas City, Kansas to help close down the camp after their summer activities.  Both skilled and unskilled tasks are completed during this 4-5 day trip.  This is a great chance for fellowship and service.

 

Local Outreach

We also help with financial support to local organizations such as the Alliance Against Family Violence, Catholic Charities, Deeper Windows and Saint Vincent’s Clinic.

 

Council on Aging

We have done several projects for clients at Council on Aging. These are typically things like small home repair or building a ramp for someone who has limited access to the outside.
