Serve Day
Serve Day – Prayer Garden Restoration at Matthew 25 Center
Join us on July 18 for a hands-on Serve Day as we partner with the Matthew 25 Center to help restore and refresh their prayer garden. This space is a place of peace, reflection, and prayer for the community, and we have the opportunity to help make it beautiful again.
All materials and supplies will be provided on site, but we need willing volunteers ready to work with their hands. We’re looking for people who can help with general labor, cleanup, rebuilding, landscaping, and light construction tasks. If you have access to basic hand tools or power tools, we encourage you to bring them as they may be helpful throughout the day.
This is a great opportunity to serve alongside others, make a tangible impact, and invest in a space dedicated to prayer and spiritual renewal.
If you have any questions, Contact Meischelle Padgett
Registration is required by July 1.

Blood Connection Blood Drive
This is a great mission opportunity!
When you give blood through The Blood Connection, you are helping out your community! After it is collected and tested, The Blood Connection helps make sure that there is a supply of blood getting to medical partners in your community - they are always available when those medical partners place an order. This makes the necessary procedures a little bit easier to plan for. So, please consider donating!
Also, if donating for a good cause wasn’t enough, you also get a $30 voucher that you can redeem for e-giftcards on The Blood Connection’s website or app. On top of that, they also give $10 to the host organization. So, every donor will be getting $30 for themselves, but will also contribute to The Gathering Burgaw’s mission budget to help make events like the dental bus happen.
The Blood Connection’s mobile unit will be at The Gathering Burgaw from 12pm-5pm on Sunday, March 22nd. Since there is limited space on the mobile unit, you must have a reservation. Please show up early and prepared.

Mission trip to Washington DC
If you have always wanted to go on a mission trip, this is a great opportunity!
The largest group of unreached people groups in the world are South Asians. “But I can’t fly 9,000 miles.” Good news! The unreached are within reach!
Here are some of the Unreached People Groups in Washington, DC:
70,000 Pakistani
12,000 Bangladeshi
135,000 South Asians
So, here is your opportunity to get involved!
When and where will the trip be?
Washington DC on March 17-21, 2026
What will we do?
We will meet each morning for worship, prayer, and simple EV training for reaching out to Muslims, especially. We will also touch on engaging Hindus. In Northern Virginia, this will include a lot of entering restaurants and shops and engaging South Asians who are working, shopping, or just present. This trip will take place near the end of Ramadan and will coincide with celebrations among the Muslim population. There will be opportunities to knock on doors and offer Bibles and literature also, but if cold-calling is not something you are comfortable doing, it is not required.

The Heart Behind The Mission - Global Education Ministries
Global Education Ministries is a ministry dedicated to exposing communities all across the world to the gospel by starting GOSPEL SATURATED SCHOOLS. Their priorities are building schools that are Affordable, Accessible, and most importantly, Gospel-Saturated. And, their goals are simple: build schools - grow the church. They do this by having gospel-woven instruction, gospel-centered discipline, and gospel-motivated relationships led by gospel-minded examples so that they are faithful in training future Christian leaders who will strengthen the church and ultimately plant more churches.
If you would like to learn more about this ministry, you are invited to a special event, “The Heart Behind The Mission,” hosted by Global Education Ministries on Friday, January 16th, at Impact Church in Wilmington, North Carolina.
This will be a meaningful evening of worship, time in God’s Word, and stories of how God is at work through GEM around the world. The event is open to everyone, and we would especially love for our local Wilmington friends to come out and support the ministry. We would also love for you to invite a friend or two (or 10!) who aren't familiar with GEM yet to join in and learn about what God is doing in and through our schools.
