306. MissionCast – Winter Shelter – Wilkes Blvd. UMC

Haiti

Wilkes Boulevard United Methodist Church in Columbia opened its doors to host the homeless during the entire frigid month of January. The congregation has also opened its doors to the homeless by providing space for Columbia’s Loaves and Fishes homeless feeding ministry. Both of these ministries have wide support from Columbia churches which provide funds and volunteers, but the Wilkes Blvd. congregation has recently reached out to the people living in their immediate community by providing space for these and other community outreach ministries. Your MissionCast crew enjoyed worshiping with the congregation and interviewing pastor Meg Hegemann in order to bring you this mission story.

303. The Best of MissionCast: St. James UMC – For Lent, Pay It Forward

Haiti

During Lent members of St. James United Methodist Church, were asked by their pastor, Dr. Emanuel Cleaver, III, to pay it forward. He gave 40 church members $40 each and asked them to go and make a difference in the life of someone in need. Results were wonderful. A Pay It Forward booklet shares testimonies from 45 church members. The church also prepared a DVD with two responses. This MissionCast tells about the experience of Paying it Forward.
