We believe we are divinely called to make disciples of all nations, bridging the gap between our pews and the ends of the earth through strategic global partnerships and national outreach. Yet, we are equally convinced that a passion for the world must begin with a deep, tangible investment in our own backyard.
For us, mission work isn't just a program; it is our heartbeat, driving us to serve our local neighbors with the same fervor and intentionality that we carry to the furthest corners of the globe.
Held about three times/year, these fundraisers support both missionaries and church ministries. There is great community support for our garage sales! You can volunteer in several ways: donations (almost anything except clothing), pricing and moving items, and set-up and sale days. For more information, contact Karen Barkman at (910) 818-9050.
Twice a year we will travel to Merci Center in Goldboro to help put together various different kits such as, birthing kits, school kits, and kits to be sent overseas for those in need. For more information contact Laurie Doherty at (910) 988-4265.
Haymount UMC partners with UMCOR to help provide humanitarian relief when war, conflict, or natural disaster disrupt life to such an extent that communities are unable to recover on their own. Although not a first response team, they do assist communities in achieving recovery. In addition, they offer global development programs in health, sanitation, poverty, sustainable agriculture, nutrition, and food security. For more information, or to become a volunteer, contact Al Miller at (910) 527-1805 or al.miller@nccumc.org.
