The ministry of BUMC extends beyond our walls into the local, national and international community. Service is a very important part of how we live out our faith. We believe that our mission to "Wash More Feet" compels us to serve those in need and to work for social justice. Learn more about many of the organizations that the Outreach Committee supports.

Our commitment to missions reaches out beyond our national needs to the needs of the world. Some activities include:

• Supporting a United Methodist missionary couple in the Congo, Drs. Jeffrey & Ellen Hoovers - teachers at the University and Seminary levels.
• Supporting a medical missionary in Central Asia, Sue Porter, who works in a local health clinic.
• Providing books and scholarships to Africa University.
• Supporting the Bishop's appeal for food aid in Zimbabwe. 
• Committing to support a microcredit program for an AIDS initiative through Opportunity International.
