Mission & Outreach

Community Partnerships and Mission Opportunities

This page is your invitation to step into something bigger than yourself—where faith moves beyond words and into action. Here, you’ll discover ways to serve alongside others who are welcoming neighbors, mentoring future leaders, restoring hope, and bringing healing into our communities.

We believe church doesn’t end at the door. As a community, we are committed to going where God is already at work—partnering, empowering, and showing up with love. Join us as we turn faith into movement and become a living presence of grace in the world around us.

Below is the list of those community organizations with whom PUMC has a relationship and partners to serve outside of the walls of the church. See where you, your family, or small group might get involved:
