Church Visit: "Mobilizing for the Future," South Park UMC

They are poised for growth not because of their prime location but because of their hard work and preparation. Pastor Brooks Heck and the leaders of South Park UMC are making the turn and positioning themselves for God to do a new work. Despite the challenges of their current reality, they have assembled several leading ministries as in-roads into the community: a Thrift Store and Food Pantry, Preschool, partnerships with the local University, community alliances, etc., etc. I have never seen such thorough demographic studies and neighborhood analysis. Keep them in your prayers as God puts the final pieces of their puzzle together for a new era of harvest. Despite how difficult it seems, Jesus said, "It is (still) plentiful."
