Meet our Covenant Mission Partners
Messiah is a church of compassion and community outreach. We have two Covenant Mission Partners - organizations that have grown out of Messiah Church, and to which we have ongoing covenants to support with our prayers, presence, and financial giving. Learn more about each of these below.
Bloom Early Learning & Child Care
Bloom is an accredited, award-winning, non-profit early learning center housed in Messiah Church. Because poverty early in life is a proven barrier to success later on, Bloom passionately strives to break the cycle at the start through nurturing care and exceptional early learning programs.
By providing scholarship assistance to half the children in our center, Bloom enables low-income single mothers and families to work or pursue education to improve their futures while giving their children the best possible start in their lives.
Our Shirley Robinson Scholarship Fund is a memorial to the wife of former Messiah Church pastor, Rollie Robinson, who originally challenged his congregation to help break the cycle of poverty through the provision of high quality, affordable, early learning and child care. Gifts from individual donors, grants, and fundraising events, as well as those from corporations, public organizations, and faith communities, help Bloom assist children of low-income families.
