Missions
Mission Ministries at LifePoint UMC develops deeply committed Christians by sending members of our congregation into our community, region and world to make disciples and serve others in ways that honor God, share Christ, transform lives and promote justice.
The objective of Mission Ministries at LifePoint is not to simply recruit and deploy volunteers. Instead, we hope to prepare people to become an active part of God’s loving, life-giving, redeeming concern for all of humankind and creation by providing opportunities for believers to give back and to grow in their relationship with God through service to others beyond the walls of the church.
Whether it’s through making donations, joining projects, or leading others, we have a place for you to serve in Keller, greater Fort Worth, and/or Beyond.
