Acts 1:8 Missions Team

Residing Hope
Residing Hope was established in 1908 as The Florida United Methodist Children’s Home and today it serves as a diverse ministry with two campuses that include residential, therapeutic group, foster, and emergency shelter care. The Home also provides independent living assistance and a community childcare center. Each month that has a fifth Sunday, we receive an offering to support the ministry of Residing Hope, and collect gift cards at Christmas to be distributed to the residents.
