WHO WE ARE

 

Urban Community Ministries (UCM) began with a desire to be agents of change in our community… a haven where the love of Christ is shown by meeting practical and spiritual needs ..., and an avenue to be the hands and feet of Christ for those looking to do more with the gifts and talents God has given them. 

​

It is not about us, but about how we can be used to build up our community. We are mandated to love and provide hope that can point to a good future. We do this by mentoring and being advocates for the families in South Memphis. We emphasize education, foster dreams, and reinforce that each person that enters our doors was created with a plan and a purpose. Our goal is to help facilitate individual's path toward finding out what that is. We currently have the following community opportunities:

​

• After School Program - first grade and up

• Summer Safe Haven Camp - ages 6 and up

• Thursday Evening Hair Styles (in collaboration with TN College of Applied Technology)

• Faith and Finance Classes (Adult)

• Zumba Classes
