The construction of The Augusta Community Prayer Garden has been completed. A dedication will be held on May 15, 2022 after church services. If you have not had a chance to visit the garden, we welcome you to come at any time and enjoy some peace and solitude surrounded by God's beauty.
Help Us Serve Our Mission Partners
James, the brother of Jesus, wrote: “What good is it, dear brothers and sisters, if you say you have faith but don’t show it by your actions?... Faith by itself isn’t enough. Unless it produces good deeds, it is dead and useless” (James 2:14,17; NLT). Serving others in love is the natural result of following Jesus Christ, and we invite you to explore ways to put your faith into action. Check out our serving opportunities below.
iCare's mission is to serve women and children who are victimized by sexual exploitation as well as those who are at risk of being victimized. We serve through a three-pronged approach of prevention, intervention and restoration. iCare's vision is
to see a community, state, nation, and a world where children are valued and protected: celebrated for their God given talents and abilities and treasured as Priceless handiworks of their Maker

GAP Ministries of Augusta
GAP Ministries was founded in 1979 as a mission outreach of local Presbyterian and Disciples of Christ churches. Over the years the ministries provided by GAP have evolved as the needs of the community have changed, and we have continued to find ways to "fill the gap" between needs and services. Our base of support has also broadened, so that now we have thirteen churches and organizations from several denominations providing funding and/or volunteers.
Pioneers
Pioneers mobilizes teams to glorify God among unreached peoples by initiating church-planting movements in partnership with local churches. For more than 35 years, Pioneers' passion has been to see God glorified among those who are physically and spiritually isolated from the gospel of Jesus Christ – from Muslim bedouins in the deserts of North Africa to secular humanists in Eastern Europe and middle-class Buddhist urbanites in the sprawling cities of East Asia.
Cancer Support Services
(formerly The Lydia Project)
The Cancer Support Services (CSS) provides free services to men, women, and children anywhere facing any type of cancer. This support includes ongoing correspondence and encouragement every month for at least twelve months. Locally, CCS grants funds for rent, utilities, medical supplies, and prescription assistance to women who are unable to afford these basic expenses while undergoing cancer treatment. CSS also provides free housing for those fighting cancer and provides transportation to cancer related appointments. To see all the services that CSS provides, visit the website at:
