REGIONAL MISSIONS
"Go into all the world and proclaim the good news to the whole creation." Mark 16:15 NRSV
We are a downtown church "Serving Christ from the Heart of Tuscaloosa." Blessed to glorify God in this setting, there are many opportunities to serve God among our neighbors in need. Where is your heart calling you to help serve?
Our Mission includes providing funding to agencies, supporting
home-bound members, and communicating volunteer opportunities inside and
outside of the congregation.
