Ways to Get Involved
Volunteer Opportunities
Our Ministries
Mission of the Month: UMAR
Our March Mission of the Month is UMAR. Here in Winston-Salem we have three UMAR homes for adults with developmental and intellectual disabilities. We are happy to have the ladies join us often on Sunday mornings for worship. If you wish to make a donation to support our UMAR homes, you can do that through the church by designating your gift for UMAR. For our engagement project, we will be putting together Easter baskets for the UMAR ladies. You may bring donations for the baskets (12 total) and place them in the bin outside the sanctuary. (We are also collecting candy and small trinkets for the Easter Egg hunt in that bin.)
A big thank you to everyone who supported our February Mission of the Month, Samaritan Ministries. The children collected over $350 for the Souper Bowl of Caring which was sent to Samaritan Ministries.
