For pastors, ministry leaders and city officials
Bring your church to the table.
Upstate Jesus People is not a church and isn't trying to become one. It's a shared volunteer hub so believers from every congregation can serve side by side where the need is greatest, then go home to their own church on Sunday.
What we ask of partner churches
Four simple things.
Tell us what you see
Take the needs survey as a leader, then share it with your congregation so we hear from the people in your pews too.
Send people
Announce serve days when they fit. Your members sign up through us and serve as members of your church.
Host when you can
A fellowship hall for a listening session, a parking lot for a food drop, a kitchen for a meal.
Pray with us
For the needs that come in, for the people serving them, and for unity across the Upstate church.
What your church gets
More hands for the work you already do.
A clear picture
The needs around your church, shared with partners as totals by area.
Serve days ready to go
Planned and staffed, ready for your people to join.
Real relationships
Pastors and members of other congregations nearby, working side by side.
Your church stays yours
No cost, no membership, and no change to who you are.
For city and county offices
You see needs we don't.
Mayors' offices, county staff, school leaders and first responders see the gaps every day. We would value your office's answers to the same survey, so church volunteers can come alongside the work already happening instead of duplicating it.
Let's talk
Start a conversation.
Tell us a little about your church or office. We'll reach out personally to find a time to talk.
