Purpose of Local Missions: Making our
church an active source for financial help to our "local" community and its
causes.
Coins For Christ
This ministry donates
loose change from the Sunday offering each month. Recent local charity
recipients were: Allen Chapel Church, Special Olympics, Habitat for
Humanity, Central Ohio Youth for Christ, Faith in Action, The Special Wish
Foundation and our local chapter of the Red Cross.
Monthly Shelter Meals
Meals are provided to
our community’s Emergency Shelter the first Wednesday of each month.
South School Partner
Church & Society
organizes a volunteer drive for after school tutors each school year. We
also have a back-to-school supply drive during the summer for students from
the school who are unable to purchase their own supplies. South school
relies on us for their first grade Dental Health Month and any other
emergency needs!
Food Drive
We partner with the
Global Mission Committee on the fall food drive that replenishes our church
pantry for our daily free lunches at the church.
Angel Tree
Each Advent season we
provide Christmas gifts for needy families in our community.
Six For Survival
The last Sunday of
each month, the congregation donates needed supplies for our local Community
Action Program.
There are several
churches in the area who participate and each church is assigned items,
which are given to families in need from our county. Currently, infant
formula is an extra item that is needed.
Community Needs
We are the contact
group for the church when there are local mission needs in our community. |
