On-Going Mission Projects


Grocery Certificates
For the past 18 years, Green Mountain United Methodist Church has made grocery certificates available every week to our members. The church purchases certificates from both Safeway and King Soopers in large blocks at a 5% discount. The certificates are available to you at face value and are used just like cash at the stores to purchase groceries, rent videos, buy ski tickets, etc. Funds from this program are not put into the line item budget, but are directed by the Administrative Council into special projects such as JeffCo Action Center and Youth Scholarships. Since the inception of this program, we have raised over $140, 000. Please add your support to this program.
