At Springhouse we set aside approximately 10% of our yearly budget for missions. For 2021, we have budgeted $79,000 to missions! More than money, though, we want to urge you to get involved personally.
Jesus said the greatest commandments are to love God and to love our neighbors. Springhouse provides many opportunities to be the hands and feet of Christ to our neighbors locally and around the world through short-term missions trips and through local charity work.

Soup 4 Seniors
Our ministry of providing foods for some of the seniors at the
LaVergne Senior Center sprang from a need of about 8 to 10 of the seniors who frequent the center on a regular basis but find themselves in need. As the saying goes, they have more month than money. Our desire is to see that they miss no meals during this time. We do this through quarterly church-wide can drive collections throughout the year.

J.O.Y – Just Older Youth
As an extension of the food ministry that was already in place, the opportunity to minister to the retirement community at Mayfield Manor came to us in July 2017. In addition to delivering food monthly, we go and love on them a little extra with bingo games and giveaways from time to time. This past Christmas as a church-wide outreach, we sang Christmas carols and gave cards and ornaments the children of Springhouse had made.
