The NC Conference Community Center

What is 3MC?3MC (formerly MERCI) is a center that seeks to connect people in the community as well as with members of the North Carolina Conference. 3MCs missions, UMCOR Depot needs and conference center opportunities are in abundance and we want you to be a part of it! Are your members hungry for a hands-on ministry that helps put homeless people to work? Does your small group have a special place in their heart for families after the loss of a child? If Disaster Support is a focus in your business or church, would assembling flood buckets help bond folks in support of those who face tragedy? Would a motivational speaker/study light a fire in the hearts of your men, women and youth? If so, 3MC is the place for you!

Churches in the North Carolina Conference Cradles For Angels

Losing a miscarried child, premature infant, still-born, or child of any age is one of the most devastating and unimaginable tragedies that one can ever face. Our infant "cradles" have been created to offer dignity and compassion and are designed to be a soft resting place for these children.

The United Methodist Men & Women provide these cradles free of charge. We have been blessed to find out these infant cradles express love and kindness to unknown families in a time of sorrow and need. Cradles are available with Christian and Non-Christian symbolism because regardless of religious beliefs, we believe when you lose a child we all grieve the same.
