YOUNG PEOPLE’S MINISTRY

The ASUMC Young Adults historically have gone on annual mission trip to Lumberton, North Carolina. Flood waters and frequent hurricanes have caused widespread damage to homes in the Lumberton area and the North Carolina Disaster Relief Team has been hard at work helping individuals and families recover, both spiritually and physically. Our young adults travel to Lumberton by van, sleep in bunk beds at the Chestnut Street United Methodist Church, and spend six days assisting local leaders make repairs to homes hit by the rushing flood waters. In addition, they continue to build life-long relationships with residents and United Methodist friends: retired Home Missioner Gary Locklear and Local Pastor Reverend Kelly. Working hard together and staying connected builds solidarity and deep trust. Please find a way to support the ASUMC Young Adults and the great work of the North Carolina Disaster Relief Team. Make checks out to ASUMC and put Mission Trip on the memo line, or visit www.archstreetumc.org to use the online giving option.
