Our Mission

We are called together to be risk takers for Christ who:

Welcome the Weary,
Worship with Joy,
Work for God’s Kingdom, and
Walk in Faith, leaving footprints for others to follow.

Cherry Hill UMC is involved in many mission opportunities.

Cherry Hill UMC participated in the First Annual Cherry Hill Village "Hope Fest" on September 19. We had a booth on the town square and distributed Cook Books with flyers for the church activities. Lots of folks stopped by for conversation and gave us an opportunity to be visible in our community.

Plans are beginning to come together for a June ’10 mission trip to Jamaica. We will once again be going with Pastors Merlin & Kay to Portland Parish on the east end of the island. This time, we are hoping to be working in a small mountain village called Fruitful Vale. We will be working on the Methodist Church and with the children of the community with a Bible School, perhaps between the Methodists and the Wesleyan Holiness Church on the opposite end of the town.

The Habitat Project is drawing to a conclusion for the year with the dedication of the Congress Street house November 8. Cherry Hill UMC has had several volunteers working all summer long and we are looking forward to the project getting going again in the Spring.

The United Methodists in the area, Friendship, Cherry Hill, Faith and Belleville First will be gathering on November 24th for a Thanksgiving Service. Our offering that evening will be gathered in as canned goods or cash to assist in the ongoing work of Belleville First UMC’s Pantry. Currently, they are serving some thirty-five families a week.

Please stay tuned for other opportunities to serve the Lord and our communities.
