Brookhill Community Resource Center

MEET OUR PARTNER: The Brookhill Community Resource Center is a partnership between the Brookhill community in the west side of Charlotte and our sister church, South Tryon Community UMC. The center was formed to support and empower the residents of Brookhill as they seek affordable housing (construction is planned on the site), job opportunities, and skills training. BCRC has partnered with several non profit partners, including CareRing, Crisis Assistance Ministry, Beds for Kids, Center for Community Transitions, and more to provide services on site in the newly refurbished center. In addition, our church has sponsored a community meal, Trinity’s Table, on Thursdays at STCUMC for many years.
ENGAGE: Regular programs are currently postponed, but the church and BCRC are partnering to provide daily meals to residents of the greater community. For more information, email Britt, Missions program director at byett@mpumc.org.
