As a way of showing God’s love in a practical way, volunteers attempt to bless hurting people in our communities with much needed home repair and renovations for free. Multiple times a year, at both campuses, we gather as a church and blanket our community with the love of Christ by sending out dozens of people to actually PROVE it to the world around us. Many of the residents in our communities can’t afford or don’t know where to turn when repairs seem too much. Volunteers of all ages come together to share the love of Jesus and help build people up! Union Church also partners with the Danville Neighborhood Development Corporation for home repairs throughout the Danville area. Here are just some of the types of projects we have done.
Multi-home repair Blitz funded by DNDC
Building handicap ramps for those in need
Yard clean-up & debris removal
Financial Peace University
Union Church sponsors Financial Peace University because we have seen first-hand the life change that it brings. We have been offering FPU since 2013 and hundreds of families have joined us in learning how to manage money God’s way. This 9-week course teaches you how to set a budget, quickly pay off debt, prepare for the future and how to live & give like no one else. Dave Ramsey’s 7 Baby Steps are taught via video in a small group setting making it fun and easy to understand. If you have any questions about our upcoming groups please email fpu@unionchurch.co
For Christmas in 2020, Union Church made the decision to gift Ramsey+ to everyone! We are continuing to offer this to YOU for FREE!
Ramsey + is the money plan for real life. You are about to change your family tree. For real! Click on the link below to fill out the form & you will receive your exclusive pass code to access all of the Financial Peace University tools and so much more!
International
Matthew 28:16-20 The Great Commission, calls us to not only serve our local communities but also to serve all nations! We have partnered with a few organizations to help us do just that!
Compassion International is a child-advocacy ministry that releases children in extreme poverty from spiritual, economic, social, and physical poverty in Jesus name. All of this is done through child sponsorships. Child sponsorship is critical. In a world where more than a billion children live on less than $2 per day, child sponsorship, connecting one child with one sponsor, is the most strategic way to end child poverty. For just $38 a month, your sponsorship provides:
Ongoing Christian training through a local church
Educational opportunities to defeat illiteracy
Key life skills training and vocational programs to provide a brighter future
Health care to prevent and fight disease and sickness
Supplements to protect against malnutrition
Recreational activities to develop self-confidence and social skills
Protection from crime, violence, and danger
To sponsor a child today just visit www.compassion.com/unionchurchva
Have you ever wanted to be a Missionary? Here is your chance! We partner with Casas por Cristo to build homes, relationships and spread the Gospel Here, There and Everywhere! Casas por Cristo exists to open the door for local pastors and churches to share the love of Jesus Christ by serving. They are dedicated to meeting the physical need for better housing as a way of also meeting the spiritual need for Jesus. This ministry is simple, build a house and give it away freely to those in need. Just like the gift of salvation the homeowner doesn’t have to do anything to deserve it, it is a gift of love!
