OUTREACH MINISTRY
AT MYERS PARK PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH
Myers Park Presbyterian Church has long heard God’s call to grow in faith, to go and make disciples, and to experience God at work through service and mission. We respond to Jesus’s invitation to love God and love our neighbor as ourselves by sharing our time, talent, and treasure, together with our ministry partners in Charlotte and around the world. Please join Myers Park Presbyterian Church’s Outreach Ministry as we explore how Love Builds Up… a Family, a Home, and the World.
