Who We Are
Reelfoot Rural Ministries is a mission program of the Memphis Conference of The United Methodist Church located in rural, Northwest Tennessee. Our four-county service area includes Lake, Obion and Dyer Counties of Tennessee and Fulton County Kentucky.
This rural area surrounding Reelfoot Lake is an area of extreme poverty. Lake County, for instance, has the lowest “per capta” income of any county in Tennessee and is 32nd to the bottom of family income level in our nation. The combined lasting effects of farm mechanization, no factory employment, and a seasonal lake culture have left economic marks difficult to change.
Although we are related to the United Methodist Church, we are a 501 (C) (3) corporation, with multiple sources of funding, serving persons without regards to religious affiliation, age, race, color, creed, sex, or any other legally protected status.Reelfoot Rural Ministries is a mission program of the Memphis Conference of The United Methodist Church located in rural, Northwest Tennessee.
