Leap Into Mission!
Leap Into Mission!
All New England United Methodist congregations are encouraged
to take the "Mission Leap!"
Our goal is for each congregation to extend their mission work through at least one (or one additional) hands-on mission experience each year.
With hands and hearts guided by the Holy Spirit, EVERY person in EVERY congregation can participate in hands-on mission work in the local community or beyond!
JUST IMAGINE the impact that could be made with hundreds of congregations committed to this “leap forward” in mission work and giving in their communities! To find out more and to get ideas for projects that everyone can do—for every level of ability or financial resources, click on Volunteer Opportunities and Ideas or one of the many other resource links on the left menu of this page.
If you are looking for ways to volunteer beyond your local community, check out the New England Conference Advance Specials. Not only do these groups and organizations need your financial support, but many also need volunteers to help in a variety of areas of their ministries.
