Description

In this episode, Scott Mozingo is in the studio with Mitch Miller, the lead pastor at one of our local church partners, Griggs Memorial Baptist Church. Griggs sits just outside downtown Greenville, and Mitch shares about their mission to worship Jesus, revitalize the church, and reach the neighborhood of Poe Mill. They also discuss the impact of Mission Upstate where we get to partner with Griggs and send our high school students as support for their summer camp for neighborhood kids.

Key Points

  • Griggs Church does incredible ministry with the Poe Mill neighborhood right outside the Greenville city limits, an area with a rich but difficult history rooted in the textile industry.
  • Church revitalization focuses on breathing new life and energy into existing local churches while also preserving their core identity and stories.
  • Our high school student ministry partners with Griggs Church during the summer to put on a three-week summer camp for neighborhood kids and share the gospel with them.
