Take care of the widows and orphans….
Christ asked us to reach out to each other, and to particularly look out for widows and orphans.  Murphytown UMC participates in several local and West Virginia UMC Conference outreach programs:

  1. A special offering is taken once a month and groceries and other items are collected all month for the benefit of a local mission program called "Urban Ministries" directed by a UMC pastor, Lisa Taylor.  Members are encouraged to give time as a volunteer as well.  Members are encouraged to join the pastor in singing every 4th Sunday at 3:00 pm at the Ohio Valley Health Care, Cedar Grove.
    2. Members are encouraged to join the pastor in presenting a Bible study each Monday at 3:00 pm at Worthington Manor Retirement Home.
  2. Through apportionments, special offerings as well as emergency relief requests, Murphytown UMC participates in the support of eight mission programs supported by the West Virginia UMC Conference and helps meet emergency needs around the state and region as well as mission efforts around the world.
  3. Murphytown encourages new members to consider initiating new ministries to benefit our community.  Please come and put your talents to work in our fellowship.
