208. Health Ministry for the Congregation and Community Outreach

workshop

Find what a health ministry can do not only for the members of your congregation but also for your community.  Another in a whole series of Health Ministry Workshops was held at Missouri United Methodist Church, in Columbia.  The workshops are sponsored by the Creative Ministries Team and are led by Julie Taylor, a Faith Community Nurse (also called a Parish Nurse) at Pathways United Methodist Church in Springfield.  Julie has a lot to offer those interested in starting up or enhancing health ministry in their congregation or as an outreach ministry in their community.  Workshop participants learn from each other as well about what has worked well in their congregation and community.

The next workshop will be held in St. Charles, at First United Methodist Church, from 10am to 2pm on Saturday, April 2nd.  The next one scheduled after that will be held in Cape Girardeau, at the Southeast District Office, from 10am to 2pm on Saturday, April 30th.  The cost for the first person from a church to register is $15.  For each additional person it is $5.  The cost includes workshop materials as well as lunch.  To register call the Office of Creative Ministries at 573-474-7155 or email Dora Thackery at thackery@umocm.com

207. MissionCast – Seeds of Hope – St. Luke’s UMC, Kansas City

house

St. Luke’s United Methodist Church has rehabbed a house to make it a “home” for their transitional housing ministry.  The project has involved over a hundred volunteers who donated over 1700 hours of labor as well as community organizations and businesses that donated things like air conditioners and water heaters.  The congregation tells about this mission outreach project in this MissionCast.

We want to thank Frank Stormer, member of St. Luke’s United Methodist Church, for producing this MissionCast and we want to commend Mission Coordinator, Sue Love, and the whole congregation for providing transitional housing for their community.

We offer this MissionCast in hopes that if there is a need for transitional housing in your church community you will contact St. Luke’s and learn from them what a wonderful outreach ministry this is.  You may contact St. Luke’s UMC by calling 816-763-8444 or visiting their website at http://www.stlukeskc.org.
