Churches, church groups, and congregation members of all denominations are important and integral to the programs and services of United Ministries. Church representatives participate in many roles as Board Members for the organization, committee members, program volunteers, donors, advisors, and advocates on behalf of our participants. We invite you and your church to join our family of contributing congregations by making a monetary donation, donating food, or donating toiletries or other tangible items.

Here are some ways in which churches and congregation members have supported United Ministries in the past:

Several churches hold collection drives for food, toiletries or school supplies needed to operate our programs. Some of those churches also send us financial contributions on a monthly or quarterly basis as an extension of their missions ministries.

Supporting churches such as Aldersgate United Methodist Church, Christ Church, Eastminster Presbyterian Church, First Baptist Church, Greenville and Fourth Presbyterian Church provide and underwrite the expenses for college students to perform summer internships in our programs.

Over the years, our annual Community Worship has been hosted by Springfield Baptist Church, Buncombe Street United Methodist Church, St. George Greek Orthodox Church, and Allen Temple AME Church.

Buncombe Street United Methodist Church has been the host site of our recent graduation ceremonies.

Westminster Presbyterian Church helped fund the purchase of our Learning Center at 503 Vardry Street.

If you would like United Ministries to make a presentation to a group in your church with more details about our needs, please call Keith Trout at 864.232.6463 to make arrangements.
