Each month, the NUMC Outreach Team chooses an organization or initiative to support through monetary donations collected weekly. We call this our Mission of the Month. At times, you may hear these missions referred to as the “Advance Specials,” which is the historical term in our church. We use them interchangeably, so whichever term you use will be understood.
GET INVOLVED
Through the Mission of the Month, our Outreach Team highlights and partners with ministries locally, nationally, and internationally to strengthen their work growing God’s kingdom. Our partnerships gained in 2023 were Lahaina UMC in Maui, Family Promise of Bucks County, The Syrian American Medical Association, A Woman’s Place, the Wrightstown Food Pantry, and much more.
November Mission of the Month:
The Mission of the Month (Advance) for November is the Penns Park United Methodist Church. Penns Park UMC, our sister mission link church, has been home to the Wrightstown Food Cupboard for almost 30 years. People in need can go to the food cupboard throughout the year at any time for food, personal toiletries, and cleaning supplies. This year, with the current government shut down, the need is urgent. Our Advance offerings will support this needed mission.
If you would like to help with this important ministry, you can use the blue envelopes located in the pews in the Sanctuary. You can also send a check to Newtown United Methodist Church, 35 Liberty Street, Newtown, PA 18940. Please mark your check “Advance for November.”
