White Haven Ministerium

White Haven UMC is part of the White Haven Ministerium. The Ministerium is a unique ecumenical group that models the love of Christ through cooperative ministries and programs. Together with four other local churches, our congregation supports:

  • The White Haven Food Pantry, providing food to families in need throughout the area.
  • The White Haven Community Lunch program, serving free meals three days each week to anyone who wishes to come.
  • Vacation Bible School-Each summer all five churches come together for a week of fun and fellowship as we offer Vacation Bible School to the children of the community.
  • Christmas Cantata-At Christmastime folks from all the churches sing as one Community Choir for the annual Christmas Cantata.

“If then there is any encouragement in Christ, any consolation from love, any sharing in the Spirit, any compassion and sympathy, make my joy complete: be of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind.” ~ Phil. 2:1-2 (NRSV)
