Kingdom Partnership in Mission is a core value at Resurrection.
We express Christ's love in tangible and practical ways to our community and beyond.
MINISTRY PARTNERS:
At Jacob's Well
At Jacob’s Well provides transitional and permanent housing for those who are homeless and mentally ill. Their mission is to end the cycle of homelessness with housing and offering case management to help get the other services they need.
Why I serve?
“We are a consistent presence in the lives of men and women who often have little to count on. And it’s wonderful to serve with other members of the Res community.”  – Edie Townsend
Helping Up Mission
The Helping Up Mission provides hope to people experiencing homelessness, poverty or addiction by meeting their physical, psychological, social, and spiritual needs. Participants in the HUM program are immersed in a 12-step therapeutic community for one full year.
Why I serve?
“In a small way, we help to give hope to these men and women.”  – Edie Townsend
BE Transformed House
The vision of the house is to provide a happy home in the Belair-Edison community as a safe place for children and their families to come learn about and experience the radical love of Jesus through play, art, Bible study, counseling, tutoring, and provision.
Why I serve?
“I get to build genuine relationships with children and their families and together we learn about and experience Jesus' love and grace for us.”  – Megan Rigos
First Fruits Farm
First Fruits Farm grows vegetables and fruits to be distributed to those who are hungry in our community through partners like the Helping Up Mission and Manna Food Center. Fresh fruits and vegetables are a big need for food banks and the farm helps fulfill this need.
Why I serve?
“Serving at First Fruits Farm is more than just pulling food out of the ground to help feed the hungry.  The fields are a sanctuary where you truly experience God's presence, and digging potatoes with a host of others feels like worship.  I leave a little physically tired, but spiritually refreshed!”  – Christel Smallman
UnCuffed Ministries
UnCuffed is a Christian organization working with juveniles incarcerated in youth and adult facilities, providing GED tutoring, family support, classes to prepare them for life after incarceration, as well as Bible study and one-on-one mentoring. Innocent or guilty, we want to show these young men that they are loved and valued by us and by God.
Why I serve?
“I began volunteering to reach out to young men who were different from my personal experiences.  But, I have found each of these boys to be very similar to the youth at Res. As I share the hope that Jesus gives, I have been richly blessed by simply getting to know them. Jesus calls each of us to become his ambassadors to those in prison.”  – Bob Carman
Araminta Freedom Initiative
The Araminta Freedom Initiative’s mission is to awaken, equip, and mobilize the Church and community in Maryland to end human trafficking through education, prevention strategies, and restorative survivor services.
Why I serve?
“Araminta helps children who have been violated to see their value and redemption in the eyes of Christ. Their goal is to restore them not only physically, but also spiritually and within community.  I love being part of that mission.”  – Emily Philpot
Westminster Rescue Mission
The Westminster Rescue Mission is a nonprofit Christian organization committed to seeing lives healed and transformed. The Mission's three areas of service include Addiction Healing Center, Mission Food Program, and Mission Marketplace.
Why I serve?
“For I was hungry, and you gave Me something to eat... whatever you did for one of these brothers of Mine, you did for Me." (Matthew 25:35, 40)
– Jim and Nita Korn
The Center for Pregnancy Concerns
The Greater Baltimore Center for Pregnancy Concerns is a locally organized and funded volunteer ministry demonstrating the love of Jesus Christ by providing abortion alternatives to women who find themselves in the midst of an unplanned pregnancy.
Why I serve?
People were bringing little children to Jesus...but the disciples rebuked them. When Jesus saw this, he was indignant. He said to them, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.” (Mark 10:13-16) Many of you know our beloved Carol Clews, the Executive Director of CPC for 20 years who fought bravely to protect women and their unborn children. I serve to honor her.  – Gretchen Carney
