Resource Ministries

Urbancrest Resource Ministries receives donations of gently used clothing, shoes, house wares, Christian and educational literature, imperishable foods, medical supplies, furniture and working appliances, tools, new generation TV’s and almost anything else except exercise equipment. These donations provide clothing, books, and other supplies to missionaries serving in under-developed regions of the world in order to open up opportunities to share the Gospel.  Urbancrest Resource Ministries also serves as a front door for our local ministries to residents of multi-housing units and other people in need.  As their needs are met, we will follow up with the purpose of sharing the Gospel.  Our warehouse location also serves as a headquarters for the Urbancrest Disaster Relief  Ministry.

We accept donations from anyone. We encourage other churches, civic organizations, and businesses to help us make an eternal difference in the lives of the world’s most needing people. If you would like more information about how your organization can make donations, please contact Denise Hardy at hardy.denise@hotmail.com

Special Needs

Since many couples at Urbancrest are considering foster care/adoption, we have a need for twin beds (frames, box springs, & mattress), children’s beds and cribs. Also, other furniture items for a child’s room are needed.

There is also a need for full size or queen beds, suitcases that can be used to pack supplies in for mission trips (Haiti medical teams, etc.).

Urbancrest Resource Ministries is also receiving used cell phones (cell phones are for a recycling project that will send money to Wycliffe Bible Translators).

We are looking for volunteers that would be willing to volunteer at the resource center for a few hours one day a week.
