MISSIONS OUTREACH

Missions Outreach is a service organization within Panther Springs UMC.  Meetings are held in the Sunshine class room the fourth Monday of each month at 6:30 p.m.  This group sponsors support for several Holston Conference ministries as well as needs within Panther Springs UMC.

Jubilee Project:

This is a project to help meet physical needs of adults and children in Hancock County.   Missions Outreach gathers and prepares hygiene kits and medicines for Jubilee Project to distribute to individuals in need.  Last year, God gave us the means to prepare 500 hygiene kits containing one each of the following:  wash cloth, tube of toothpaste, shampoo, bar of soap, dental floss, toothbrush, toothbrush cover and 2500 tooth hygiene kits that contained one each toothpaste, toothbrush, toothbrush covers and dental floss.  We were also able to purchase $500 in medicines for the medical clinic at Jubilee.  Our church also sent clothes and new blankets for the winter distribution in December.

Holston United Methodist Home for Children:

Rev. Charles A. Hutchins is Vice-President of Development and Church Relations at Holston United Methodist Home for Children in Greeneville, TN.   Missions Outreach promotes the Fifth Sunday offering which goes directly to funding campus ministry at Holston Home.  This ministry includes church services and religious programs which the children attend. 

The employees of Holston Home minister and promote the gospel of Jesus Christ to the children who live there.

 One of the programs at Holston Home is the equestrian program.  Missions Outreach has sponsored food for one horse for the past two years.  There is also a gardening program and many sports activities.
