Love in Action

Our newest Outreach initiative is a one-time engagement opportunity to experience what God is already doing through our partners in Charlotte.

There will be a new offering monthly with a clergy or staff member!

July Love in Action:

Welcome Ministry Backpacks, June-July 20 – The MPPC Welcome Ministry has been working with the CMS International Center and other various community partners to welcome families to Charlotte for the past 5 years. Needs are usually determined on an as-needed critical basis. The Welcome Ministry is grateful to have the support of the MPPC congregation to meet the urgent needs of various groups in our community. Help fill backpacks for CMS students by kindly ordering from this wish list. | Wishlist
