175. MissionCast – Outreach Mission Store – Bell City UMC

Born Again Mission Store – Bell City United Methodist Church

From the Bell City UMC website:Â The name of the store reflects both who we are and what we do.Â The mission store was â€œbornâ€ through Bible studies and Visioning Team meetings at Bell City United Methodist Church.Â The Church wants to continue to grow in local mission work and give back to the community, thus Born Again was created.The store accepts donated items.Â Some of the items are new, some have been lovingly used, but as they find a new home, they are truly Born Again, just as we in our walk with God, are Born Again.The items in the store are sold at garage sale type prices and anyone can shop at Born Again.Â All the proceeds from the sale of items in the store are put back into the United Methodist Womenâ€™s Mission Fund and those dollars are used locally to assist with utilities, groceries, medicine, and other needs we are made aware of.Â Assistance is not based upon church membership at Bell City UMC or any other church, but upon the need of others for a helping hand during tough times.

The store is open every Monday and Thursday from 9am to 4pm and also on the first Saturday of every month with baked goods available on the Saturdays.Â For information about how they started this ministry and for other questions about what they do email bcumc@cablerocket.com.

Â ***Click here to sign up to receive a weekly notice about MissionCast content.

For the first time in anyone’s memory the large sanctuary at Manchester United Methodist Church was completely empty on Sunday morning.Â But that doesn’t mean that their attendance was down.Â Actually it was up as members of the congregation scattered all over town to worship and honor God in the form of performing all kinds of Christian service to their community.Â Dr. Carl Schenck, Senior Pastor of Manchester United Methodist Church tells about it in this MissionCast.Â Pictures of their actual Sunday morning mission service are shown as he talks.Â In the evening the congregation gathered for a celebration of their service.

165. MissionCast – Conversations On Religion & Race – First UMC, Webster Groves

Â ***There is more…don’t miss the additional video with more information below.

The Missouri Conference Values Team reviewed a new program designed to initiate conversations on religion and race in congregations.Â Instead of organizing a workshop on how to implement this program in local churches the team decided that it would be better for a congregation to actually use the program and tell other congregations about their experience.Â First United Methodist Church, in Webster Groves, with great success, piloted this new program for our conference.Â This MissionCast is designed to give you a taste of what it was like.Â Rev. Michele Sue Shumake-Keller will be sharing her congregationâ€™s experience in detail during one of the workshops at Annual Conference.

163. MissionCast – Pay It Forward – St. James UMC, Kansas City

During Lent members of St. James United Methodist Church, were asked by their pastor, Dr. Emanuel Cleaver, III, to pay it forward. He gave 40 church members $40 each and asked them to go and make a difference in the life of someone in need. Results were wonderful. A Pay It Forward booklet shares testimonies from 45 church members. The church also prepared a DVD with two responses. This MissionCast tells about the experience of Paying it Forward.Â To listen to the DVD prepared by St. James UMC click here.
