Service.
We take what we learn in worship and small groups and let it move us outside. We participate in service projects year-round in Charlotte and have a mission trip each year.
Our mission partner is Cross Connection!
We value mission partners who can provide a safe, curious, and inclusive space for our students to serve.
If you are interested in attending, please reach out to taylor@locumc.org.

We have multiple retreats offered throughout the year. Our Winter Retreat is in partnership with Cross Connection and is Feb 14-17 in Blowing Rock, NC.
This retreat is for middle & high school students, incorporating confirmation break-outs for the confirmands throughout the weekend.
