U2R's mission is to unite The Church, preach the Gospel, and expand God’s kingdom through outdoor community events in the Riverbend and Metro East area. They mobilize alongside local leaders and community members, bringing unity as written in John 17:20-24, “That they may become one so that the world may know that you sent me and loved them even as you have loved me.”

In 2023, U2R held 11 events in five cities. They had over 1500 attendees, fed 500+, saw 70 salvations, baptized 20, witnessed healings, and continue to disciple many through the ministry.

U2R expects more for 2024! Will you join their mission?
