Woods Chapel United Methodist Church, Major Hammett
September, 2010
I am a proud member of Woods Chapel United Methodist Church, located in Lee’s Summit, Missouri. My family and I are pleased to have found a community in which to practice our faith and contribute positively to the local and global community. Woods Chapel United Methodist Church has instituted some extremely beneficial programs that effect significant charitable assistance for people in need. The Guatemala School Construction Mission Trips are just one example of the important work of Woods Chapel United Methodist Church. Recognizing that Guatemala is one of the most impoverished countries in the world, our church established a project to build new schools for neighborhoods and districts in most need. Starting in 2007, Woods Chapel Church has organized 10-day mission trips to Guatemala. During these 10 days, our church members supply critical resources to the communities they visit, including new pipelines for clean water and medical and dental clinics. The mission trips are also great opportunities to learn about Mayan culture and explore the beautiful Lake Atitlan. In addition to coordinating trips to Guatemala, Woods Chapel United Methodist Church also sends mission teams to Russia, Jamaica, Uganda, and Mozambique. Woods Chapel United Methodist Church acknowledges many communities in our own country also need our help. As part of its local mission initiatives, Woods Chapel United Methodist Church oversees ministries that provide food for underserved populations, raise money for soup kitchens and shelters, and work with at-risk youth. As a member of the Woods Chapel United Methodist Church, I have ample opportunities to volunteer in our community and give back in a meaningful way. If you live in the Lee’s Summit area, I highly recommend finding a way to volunteer with our church to see if it could be the religious community for you.
