Community Partners

Jesus said, “When you served those often ignored, you served me.” We follow Jesus’ teachings by taking action in the communities where we live, work, and play to help all God’s creation thrive.

Casas de Luz

MHUCC has sent numerous teams of youth and adults to Tijuana over the years with Casas de Luz, most recently in February 2024. A team leaves from the church on Saturday morning, crosses into Mexico, and by Sunday afternoon, has built an entire house for a family. You can join us next time!

Uptown Community Service Center

The Uptown Community Service Center provides vital services to people who are homeless, primarily in the Balboa Park area.

Started in 1984 by MHUCC and several other area churches, services are offered to all without discrimination and regardless of religious affiliation, to help them become self-supporting members of our community.

Volunteers help to distribute food, clothing, hygiene kits, and mail and assist clients in filling out documents and using computers. Training will be provided.
