Missions
Missions provide essential opportunities for us to reach out to those around us. High Street United Methodist Church is involved in many outreach and mission projects which benefit our local community, neighboring areas and people around the world. Here are some projects we are involved in and some ways you can help! If you’d like to help, call the church office at 781-585-9863.
We had another wonderful mission trip to Machias, Maine - thank you so much for your support.

This Board is a major arm of the United Methodist church and serves people in need in our country and around the world. Our United Methodist Committee on Relief is one of the first on site in disaster situations. Through these ministries our church offers food, shelter, education and hospitals to people in need, provides hope for those in poverty, disasters, abusive situations, and in oppressive places, and shares the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ with the world.
Duxbury Interfaith Council
We work with the churches in Duxbury to foster an interfaith spirit in our community and to help those in need with outreach, such as summer camp scholarships, and food baskets at the holidays. Financial gifts are always appreciated.
Members of our church visit this homeless shelter in Brockton on the third Friday of each month to serve a meal to those who are housed at Mainspring. We need people like you to help serve and to bake cakes for dessert!
We supply canned goods and other non-perishable items to the pantry on a regular basis. You can contribute by leaving items in the large basket on the missions table in the Fellowship Hall.
National and World Missions
Members of our congregation have traveled to Maine to repair houses in rural Maine and lend a hand at the state-wide food distribution center for shelters. Others have traveled to Ghana on a work team to build a church and Sunday School building, lead Vacation Bible School and share the word of Christ.
The Boston Rescue Mission is one of the largest overnight emergency shelters in Massachusetts. We visit periodically to help serve a nutritious lunch to homeless men and women and to lift up their concerns in prayer.
Samaritan's Purse
Each Christmas our congregation puts together Christmas gift boxes for children in need around the world. This program is sponsored by Samaritan's Purse.
McCurdy School
We collect Campbell soup labels to support the McCurdy School located on a reservation in New Mexico.
Habitat for Humanity
We recently assisted in building a home for a family in Duxbury.
