Outreach

Looking for a way be involved while helping others? Email the church office or call 303-762-0616 to donate or get involved in a project!

The mission of the Ministry of Christian Outreach is to engage members and friends of First Plymouth in endeavors that promote and support human dignity and social, economic, and environmental justice. The Outreach Ministry provides financial support through grants to nonprofit organizations and volunteer opportunities for anyone to engage in projects that serve those in need.  Current projects include:

Rwanda - Annually, individuals sponsor children in Kenombe Village, Rwanda, so that they may go to school, receive clothing, and have a healthy breakfast. Click here for more information.

Kiva - loans that change livesLoans that Change Lives -  The world's first person-to-person microlending website allows individuals to make loans as small as $25.00 to help entrepreneurs in developing nations. Even loans of a small amount can change the lives of people in third-world countries. Kiva provides profiles of each entrepreneur, allows you to track the progress of their business, and manages repayment of the loans. Join the First Plymouth Kiva Lending Team to help change lives.
