At Christ Church-United Methodist, we strive to be active in mission work throughout the year. To accomplish this task, we have set different mission projects throughout the year. They are as follows:

March: We work on Health Kits. We collect these kits to assist in UMCOR’S relief effort when needed for hurricane, flood or other natural disaster. UMCOR is the United Committee on Relief.

April: The mission for this month is Project Linus which supplies homemade blankets to children who are suffering a serious illness or trauma. In 2006, we created 95 blankets and distributed them locally.

July/August: During the summer months, we work on School Kits.

November: In this month our mission project is Blanket Sundays. Also, we collect items for the Utica Neighborhood Center and the children it serves.

December: During the month of December, we concentrate ona couple of things. First, we collect personal items, and gifts for the children and youth at The Utica Neighborhood Center. For the Center, we collect new toys ready for wrapping.

Year-round: We collect and support the Sherrill Community Food Pantry. We collect food and accept monetary donations which all go directly to supporting the food pantry. Once every four months, volunteers from Christ Church provide the workers for the food distribution which takes place weekly on Tuesday evenings.

Throughout the year, we also collect personal items and stuffed animals for Liberty Resources ministering to victims of domestic violence.

We also collect items for the Red Bird Mission in Kentucky. Red Bird is an United Methodist Community Program in Kentucky, and it is part of the Red Bird Missionary Conference.

We also work on the Christmas Families Project. The family project is our congregation helping to supply a family in the greater Sherrill area with a complete Christmas…from gifts for all in the family, to giving the makings of a complete Christmas dinner.

Of course, throughout the year, whenever a special project comes up, we stand ready to respond to any need. This past fall, we helped to bring children back from Jordan to be reunited with their mother.
