The Wider Church Ministry is responsible for mission and outreach programs at Sixth Avenue Church. This ministry identifies and creates opportunities to support charity organizations (Adopt-A-Family, Denver Inner City Parish, HIV/AIDS) and relief programs in the Denver community, nationally, and internationally through Special Denominational Offerings. The ministry also creates opportunities to support Denver community events.

We welcome your participation; check out Upcoming Events.

Sixth Avenue United Church of Christ (UCC) works in partnership with Bread for the World encouraging our government to take a more active role in tackling the causes of hunger in our nation and in the world.

 

We help by advocating as a collective Christian voice through letter writing campaigns to our legisaltive representatives.

Bread for the World helps churches like ours support families on the margins. We join forces with other Colorado churches in a variety of anti-poverty campaigns in order to be a part of ending hunger around the world!

Capitol Hill United Ministries (CHUM) and Capitol Hill United Neighbors (CHUN) represent two of our local community ministry partners.

A simple way to be involved in the community is through Capitol Hill United Ministries (CHUM), an interfaith coalition united in service to people living in the Capitol Hill area. Sixteen churches including our own participate with CHUM. Since 1989, the “CHUM Coupon Redemption Program” has raised $614,000 dollars and poured that money back into the community for the benefit of those who are homeless, hungry, or ill.

Capitol Hill United Ministries allocates an average $2,000 a month to various faith-based service agencies on Capitol Hill.  Incredibly, all that money comes from the coupons that we and members of the other area churches supply on Sundays.  The coupons go to Warren United Methodist Church, where from 9am to 11.30 on Monday mornings volunteers clip, stamp, and sort coupons.  Other volunteers then take the coupons to King Soopers at 9th and Downing and attach them to the appropriate products.  A customer who buys one of these products may use the coupon personally, or donate it to CHUM.  That's how store coupons brought to church do so much good in our neighborhood.

Bring your newspaper coupons to Sixth Avenue any time. Put them on the back table, any time and help our neighbors in Capitol Hill.
