Micah 6 Mission Activities

 

In response to Micah’s call to faithfulness and Jesus’ similar call to discipleship, West Heights is actively involved as a Micah 6 congregation. We made this covenant as part of a broader community of Micah 6 congregations which can support each other in living the vision of Micah 6:8. Our goal is to embody this integrated vision in our ministries of justice, compassion, and spiritual growth - to enrich all our ministries with the Micah 6 philosophy so that all areas of church life witness to the full breadth of our discipleship.

Our Micah 6 group has
several mission teams:

United Methodist Open Door team:
to provide ongoing financial support for UM Open Door, facilitate food collection, and coordinate volunteer help.
Haiti work team: 
to bring together people who are interested in participating in a mission trip to Haiti as well as those providing financial and prayer support for the mission in Haiti.
Watoto work team:
to coordinate financial and prayer support for the Watoto Children’s ministry in Uganda, including raising funds for a house and planning a trip to Uganda to do the construction.  More information:  click here
Congregational Care team: to give help to persons in or affiliated with our congregation by providing travel to medical care, helping with yard work, handy-man jobs, etc. 
CREW/Habitat for Humanity team:
to provide odd jobs, repair work, painting, and other tasks for people in our community, as well as our own church facility; and to coordinate those who are interested in helping build a habitat house.
Interfaith Ministries team:
to match people with the varied ministries of IFM, such as Operation Holiday, Campaign to End Childhood Hunger, Churches United for Peace, and Faith in Action.
Micah 6 administrative team: to keep the congregation aware of what missions are happening in and through West Heights; to provide opportunities for being a part of a mission team or a specific mission project.

All teams are actively recruiting members. Anyone interested in joining any of these very important missions should contact the church office at 722-3805.
