Sharing God's Love with our Community and our World
Our Ministries
The Missions group at Faith UCC is extremely active locally and abroad. Our mission is reach out in love beyond the church doors with compassion to all in need.
- Every year we are paired with families from Interparish Ministry who we follow throughout the year.
- At Thanksgiving we provide those families with food and groceries for a Thanksgiving meal and beyond.
- At Christmas, we provide not only food, but also clothes and toys.
- In the spring, Kroger gift cards are given to the families to help with food and gas.
- We prepare disaster relief kits and personal care kits for the Ohio Conference.
- We collect food year-round to help families in our area.
- We collect school bags and school supplies for children returning to school to be distributed by Interparish
Ministry.
- We make personal care kits for the James Saul Center, a shelter for homeless and abused women and children.
- We support the Southwest Ohio Northern Kentucky Association Global Partnership with Rubate College in Kenya,
Africa. We have sponsored fund raising dinners, hosted visitors from Kenya, and supported a grass-roots
organization known as the Kind Mothers, whose mission is to to care for AIDS orphans and single mothers with
children in the Rubate area. In addition, we have donated money and supplies to build a health clinic on the
Rubate college campus.
