Engaged in impactful mission work
GLOBAL MISSIONS
For over a decade, Yorkminster Presbyterian Church was engaged in impactful mission work in Honduras, including medical clinics, housing projects, and clean water initiatives.
Through partnerships with organizations like Living Waters for the World, we have installed sustainable water systems in several communities, improving health and quality of life for many.
As we celebrate these past efforts, we are also looking forward to new and exciting global missions opportunities. Our leadership is currently exploring how we can continue to spread the love of God and serve communities in need around the world in fresh, meaningful ways. Stay tuned for updates as we embark on this new chapter of our global outreach.
