“Love God.  Love Others.  Make a Difference.”

Here at GUMC, we strive to share God’s love, change lives and serve the local community. Included below are several ministries that we offer in fulfilling our mission.  However, new opportunities for service are always in the works. Contact the church office at (479) 996-6397, email greenwood@arumc.org, if you would like to help serve in one of these mission projects or if you would like to make a donation.

Foster Family Night Out ~ This ministry provides a "night out" for foster parents and children. Families are invited to enjoy a free meal. Fun activities are planned for the children which gives the foster parents time to fellowship with each other and lean on each one other for support.  Classes are also occasionally hosted by GUMC for the foster parents. 

Back Pack Program  ~ weekly distributions of non-perishable food items are sent home with children in need during the school year (in coordination with the Greenwood School District and the Community Clearinghouse in Fort Smith, Arkansas.)

Christmas Toy Closet ~ annual distribution to assist families in need of Christmas gifts for their children. 

GUMC Food Bank ~ monthly distribution of food on the fourth Thursday of each month from 9:30-11:00 a.m. for local individuals and families in need. The Food Bank distribution is currently provided as a "drive-thru" service starting at 15 W. El Paso Street, and is available rain or shine. (Read more HERE.)

Guatemala Mission Team ~ ministers to the Shadow of His Wings orphanage in Guatemala.  

Arms Around Greenwood (AAG) ~ Arms Around Greenwood is the result of a challenge given to our congregation to transform the community by expressing the love of Jesus through community outreaches. AAG began in 2016 as a single day of outreach and has grown into year round missions and outreach activities in our community.
