Each one of us needs to look after the good of the people around us, asking ourselves, "How can I help?" ~ Romans 15:1-2 (The Message)

Excelsior UMC holds a strong belief in living out a Christian life through service to others and active learning of other cultures. We do this in response to God's love freely given to us and to spread God's love and the kingdom here in creation. Sometimes, service and learning combine in the form of a mission trip. Below you'll find links to blogs with writing and photos about our mission trips since 2008, as well as upcoming mission trips.
