Each year, Asbury finds a mission partner to support through the Christmas Eve offering. In 2023, $16,426 – 100% of the Christmas Eve offering – was donated to Mobility Worldwide, an amount that covered the cost of 38 handcarts for those in developing nations with limited mobility. Past recipients include the Second Harvest Food Bank, UMCOR, Bethany Christian Services, the Salem Food Pantry, Healthy Women, Healthy Liberia, Youth PEACE Ministries, Through These Hands, missionaries Kevin and Kathy Bruce for a church in Ecuador, Cookson Hills Center in Oklahoma, Ramos Elementary for a playground, and the community of Yarpuah, Liberia, to build their first clean-water well,
