Another important mission of BPC is supporting the Marion Medical Mission in their efforts to provide shallow wells in Africa for poor villages of people who have no access to safe drinking water, we have raised enough money so far for two wells. Click here for photos of the wells we sponsored in 2024. Plans are to continue to raise money for this wonderful and life-saving mission.

OUR SERVICES
BUTNER PRESBYTERIAN PRE-K
Butner Presbyterian Pre-Kindergarten is a half-day preschool program for children ages 3, 4, and 5. Our mission is “We Learn Through Play.” We seek to facilitate a child’s lifelong love for learning!

Our loving and nurturing environment promotes cooperation with other children, engagement in hands-on activities, and discovery of personal interests and talents.

Feeding God's People
-
Butner Church Council - Thanksgiving Food Blessing Program. Each year, the Butner Church Council sponsors a Thanksgiving food give away for needy families. The food is purchased, sorted, stored, and then readied for pick up, in time for Thanksgiving. Again this year, the program was hosted at the Butner Presbyterian Church, and all the food was distributed the Saturday before Thanksgiving.
-
The first Sunday each month, BPC volunteers to prepare food boxes at ACIM (Area Congregations in Ministry) located in Oxford. There we prepare ~ 40 food boxes so the ACIM weekday volunteers can distribute the following day, to needy families. The food boxes typically include, canned fruits, canned vegetables, breakfast food, dried beans, lentils, tomato paste and tortillas. This is a fun and fulfilling way to give back to the community. Let us know if you would like to join us.
