Mount Olivet UMC
This week we want to highlight Mount Olivet UMC. This wonderful church is one of the original signing churches that made it possible for Love INC of Mid-Delmarva to open and become a local affiliate of the Love INC Movement. The congregation supports many ministries through their time, talent, and funds that offer transformation to neighbors.
•Mount Olivet prints and emails Love INC bulletin inserts engaging its congregation to be in prayer and often in action to respond to the needs of our community. They respond to every request brought before them with prayer, care, and joy!
•Mt. Olivet collects items for Code Purple (our wintertime homeless sheltering ministry). Volunteers also move furniture, serve at Code Purple, offer counseling, and participate in all the functions and unified efforts to support neighbors in need. Mt. Olivet has members who volunteer their time to serve on the Love INC Board and as intake workers in our Clearinghouse. Several members have been formally trained in transformational courses such as Faith & Finances.
•Mt. Olivet completed the eight-week study called “Redemptive Compassion”, an eye-opening course on how to meet need in a biblical manner. “Redemptive Compassion” is the precursor to an amazing community course they have offered called “Affirming Potential”.
