Opportunities for Mission

 

If your heart is calling to you in the mission field locally or globally, Pick-a-Project and get involved in spreading the Gospel to the world! 

JUMC participates yearly in filling up Thanksgiving Baskets for Families in need and we are proud to prayerfully be able to provide a complete family meal to more than 30 families in our community!

JUMC also holds yearly fundraisers for both the We Care Baby Center and Neighbors Helping Neighbors Community Rebuilding Project.

 

          

Projects in Nicaragua through our Nicaragua Covenant:

  1. Las Flores Nutrition Project - $3/month  to sponsor 1 child
  2. Education Project - $50/month  to sponsor 1 teacher
  3. Women’s Economic Development - $12/month for 1 woman
  4. Mobile Health Project - $8/month to sponsor 1 community 
  5. Methodist Feeding Program - $2 month to feed 1 child
