Missions

Olivet Good Neighbors Program
​
Housed in the Olivet Congregational Church, the Olivet Good Neighbors Program is a non-profit community assistance program that provides food and other needed household items to people in need in our community. Members of the church, local businesses, organizations and individuals provide grocery items and financial support throughout the year, and annual food drives are held by Olivet Community Schools, Olivet College organizations and employees, Olivet Lions Club, and the Lee Center United Methodist Church.
Eaton Community Palliative Care
​
Part of the hospice movement, palliative care is a unique concept of care designed to help terminally ill patients and their families live life fully and with dignity, and to help loved ones cope after death.  Anyone who has been given a diagnosis of 6 months or less is eligible to receive services from Eaton Community Palliative Care. Olivet Congregational Church sponsors a room at the hospice. echo spice.org
City Rescue Mission of Lansing
The City Rescue Mission of Lansing is a Christian ministry providing food, shelter and hope to homeless people and victims of domestic violence. The congregation supports the mission through annual  special offerings and donation of items such as pillows and blankets, socks, underwear, coats and other personal care items needed by the mission. On the first Saturday every other month, members of the church work at the mission serving dinner. bearescuer.com
Western Michigan Teen Challenge
Western Michigan Teen Challenge is a one year live-in discipleship program. Its main focus is to help adults who are struggling with life controlling addictions of any kind. They believe that addicts can be set free by the power of Jesus Christ, and don't have to live the rest of their lives as an addict. Students learn how to have a relationship with God, how to get their lives back on track, and how to remain free from the bondage of addictions. Olivet Congregation Church hosts visits by Teen Challenge participants and supports their work through special offering donations. wm-tc.com
Mission Mazauha
Olivet Congregational Church has had a relationship with Mission Mazahua for the past dozen years. The Mission, affiliated with the NACCC, serves the Mazahua indigenous people in the Central Highlands of Mexico. Reverend Norberto and Mrs. Lisa Cortes are the Founders and Directors, and their son was part of our church while a student at Olivet College. A Mazahua woman who is also an Olivet College graduate was active in our church during her college years here. She and her family live on a farm near the Mission, where for some time she served a key role on the staff. 
The Mission provides spiritual, educational, pastoral, domestic and family support to those in the local villages and municipalities.  It also assists with helping families develop small enterprises to raise family income for those in poverty, construct water harvesting cisterns, provide medical, physical rehabilitation services and Christian education to those with physical and learning challenges.  Many members and friends of the Olivet Congregational Church have participated as short-term missionaries at Mission Mazahua.
