Outreach

For more information about Outreach at RUMC, contact Rev. John Ray at 397-3012 or John@Riverchaseumc.org.



Outreach at RUMC might be defined as the act of reaching out and extending services beyond their usual limits. Our commitment to "Sharing the Joy of Christ" fuels our concern for the needs of others. A strong emphasis on mission allows the congregation to provide physical, spiritual, and emotional support to people in the communtiy, the nation, and the world. Contact one of our ministers to volunteer.
