Local and Global
MorningStar supports several outreach opportunities within our walls. We have a
preschool program providing Christ-based day care and learning for forty+ children
each school year. Our facilities are used by Daisy and Brownie scout troops which are
open to children from inside and outside the congregation. Our youth programs always
have a mission focus as part of their program. While having lots of fun, our youth
participate in activities such as Crop Walk, Souper Bowl of Caring, monthly collections
for Second Harvest food bank and assisting with the Room In The Inn project.
Members contribute dozens of shoe boxes filled with requested items and volunteers at
the processing center for Operation Christmas Child. Samaritans Purse distributes the
boxes to needy children around the world at Christmas.
There are various "hands on" projects available for congregation participation.
Members regularly participate in the Room In The Inn and Samaritan House programs
which aid the homeless in our area. Blood drives are held. Intermittently,
MorningStar has adopted an Angel Tree family providing year round support to get
them back on their feet and provided programs for Blessed Assurance Adult Day Care
Center.
A portion of our overall church budget is pledged to support the general mission of the
Charlotte Presbytery and the Presbyterian Church USA. These ministries develop
churches, provide meals, and help our members to build powerful relationships with
their brothers and sisters in Christ around the globe.

Almost every fundraising project at MorningStar tithes a
portion of the receipts for mission support. For example, our
mortgage retirement campaign is providing significant funding
for Heiffer International to purchase animals and training for
poor third world communities to become more self sufficient
and funds from our annual, community-wide "Medieval Feast
of Courtly Love" presented at Valentine's Day will be sent for
Haiti relief this year.
