Healing Today for a Brighter Tomorrow!

The UMCH ministry began in 1913 in Creal Springs and has been located in Mt. Vernon, Illinois, since 1921.  What began as an orphanage has developed into a multifaceted social service agency providing an array of services to individuals, families, and our communities.
