Local Missions
We partner with a number of local missions through hands-on involvement and financial support. Members of our congregation have embraced these efforts as their own, and these activities are an important part of life at University Park United Methodist Church.

Dallas Area Habitat for Humanity
Dallas Area Habitat for Humanity is a Christian ministry that builds quality, affordable homes in partnership with deserving families. UPUMC is currently building a house in Southeast Dallas with a targeted completion in mid-November.
Agape Not Home Alone
The Agape Memorial Methodist Church in east Dallas provides a Christian-based after-school program for children ages 5-9 whose parents are working during after-school hours. Through the program, approximately 30 children are picked up at school, supervised, fed and tutored until their parents pick them up. Our church supports this program and is dedicated to ensuring its viability through contributions of time, materials, food and dollars. Our members currently provide snacks for the children at least once a week and host holiday parties for them.
