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.
