Short Term Mission Trip to our Connectional Church in Jablonne, Czech Republic.  We will be helping that congregation finish the roof and a room at the church.  Please contact the church office if you are interested in serving as part of this mission team.

         MISSION OUTREACH

Mission programs are conducted in a hands on manner. Going beyond just financial support, members of the congregation, under the leadership of the Missions Committee, invest their time and talents in helping to improve our community at home and abroad. 

Foreign missions are supported through our Herman Batt Fund. Monies have been sent  to missionaries in Africa, Cambodia, France and to several Arab countries. In 2001 a mission team went to Jamaica to build houses, worked with children and participated in other projects.  In 2005 a group worked at the Methodist Habitat in the Bahamas and in 2006 and again in 2007 and 2008,  traveled to the Gulf Coast and assisted with the Hurricane Relief Effort.

Thanksgiving week, food baskets are distributed to families in need.  Each Christmas season, we distribute gifts and food baskets to families through our Mission Tree.  Gifts are also delivered to children through the Angel Tree program.

Community Outreach picnics and dinners are served quarterly to area agencies and our local neighborhood.   Smaller groups serve meals at the Pitino shelter and at Boulware Mission.

Contributions are made to the following agencies:

Wesley House, Red Bird Mission, Henderson Settlement, Habitat for Humanity, H.L. Neblett, Owensboro Free Clinic, Camp Loucon, West End and Helen Sears Day Care Centers, American Indian Field, Center of Hope,  Dismas REC, Lighthouse, Good News Jail Ministry, Campus Crusade, Athletes in Action,  and to the Help Office.

In April of 2010, Settle Memorial hosted their first, Global Impact Celebration, celebrating where we have been in missions and what God wants us to do next.   The Mission Team is truly focused on Acts 1:8, "Be my witness in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria and to the ends of the earth."
