Purpose
Compelled by Christ, the EMB works to alleviate human suffering and advance hope and healing on behalf of the people called United Methodist.
Mission
Established in 2009 as a ministry of the Eastbrook United Methodist Church, our mission is 4-fold:
- Collect, process, package and ship UMCOR
kits in a tri-state region.
- Construct handicap access ramps using the
UMVIM model.
- Provide material support for ERT (Early
Response Teams) doing disaster response.
- Provide education about Christian mission – especially UMCOR and UMVIM
Assist UMCs around the New Castle Community in poverty alleviation and community development.
Since 2009 we have shipped over $1 million worth of UMCOR kits; built 70+ ramps; developed 4 Satellites in 2 states; nurtured 4 District ramp-building ministries; supported several ERT teams with our tool trailer; and involved mentally challenged adults, recovering addicts, and youth and adults from WPA, East Ohio, and Upper NY in our ministries.
