Community Outreach
Coming Up
Vacation Bible School
Every year we invite the children of our community to join us for Vacation Bible School. This year, we're seeking a Discovery on Adventure Island, where the children will be discovering God's light.

Regular Participation
Habitat for Humanity
Manchaca UMC participates in the Habitat for Humanity "Methodist Build," which occurs in Austin every 2 years. We join with other churches to sponsor and help build a home for a person on need. Our last project was in April 2023 — read more about it! We'll prepare for another build in 2025. You can read more about Austin Habitat for Humanity here.
Any Time
Community Basketball Court
We welcome the community to use the basketball court at our covered Pavilion located at the back of our west parking lot. We often hear that it is our most used facility. Click here for more information and perhaps some inspiration.
South Austin Assistance Ministry (S.A.A.M.)
Manchaca UMC is a proud partner and support of S.A.A.M., a community coalition of several churches in South Austin seeking to serve people in need of basic food, clothing, housing, and utility assistance.
Any person or family that solicits help is referred to the Post Road Community Center of Travis County. This department makes an assessment of the needs of the person or family. If this help is not enough, the department turns to S.A.A.M for additional funds.
