Mission and Outreach Ministries

"Then the King will say to those on his right, 'Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat. I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink. I was a stranger and you invited me in. I needed clothes and you clothed me. I was sick and you looked after me. I was in prison and you came to visit me.' 'Then the righteous will answer him, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?' The King will reply, 'Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did it for me.'" - Matthew 25:31-40

Committed to caring for Christ, we joyfully commit ourselves to caring for the "least of these" - locally and globally. By supporting the following missions and ministries of outreach with our time, talent, and money, we hope to meet Christ and believe that we can offer the hope we have found in Christ to those being served. Please note, that the following is by no means a complete or static list, as it continues to grow and change depending on ministry needs.

CURRENT MISSIONS

SISTERFRIEND

We envision a world where everyone is treated with dignity, respect and receives the right to hygienically manage their menstruation wherever they are.

SisterFriend, Inc. is Pittsburgh’s only 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to sustaining menstrual health by providing homeless and underprivileged populations with menstrual hygiene products.People living in poverty typically know where to find a safe place to sleep or a hot meal to eat. But when it comes to taking care of their menstrual hygiene needs, they often have nowhere to turn.Tampons and sanitary pads usually top the list of needs at shelters, since they’re pricey and supporters don’t often donate them. That is where SisterFriend comes in. We provide our shelter and school partners with the menstrual care products they desperately need.
What to Donate:
We accept: Individually wrapped sanitary napkins (pads), tampons, adult incontinence pads, new bras and new panties (with tags attached), or monitary donations.___________________________

November 2019 e-Newsletter
With your support, Northeastern Food Pantry has supplied groceries and personal care items for 263 people during the month of October. The families served included 74 children, 121 adults, and 68 seniors.

As in years past, we have added extra client appointments during November and December to keep up with increased demand through the Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year holidays.

To help make the holidays special for our clients, please consider donating shelf stable items that will help create holiday meals and memories. For example, staples such as sugar and flour can be used in a variety of holiday recipes. Packets of turkey/chicken gravy mix, boxed cornbread mix, canned cream of mushroom or cream of chicken soup, and canned yams can be used to prepare side dishes. And, boxed pie crust mix, canned pumpkin/fruit pie filling, or canned fruit cocktail can be used to make dessert.

We cannot thank you enough for making sure our clients have enough to eat during the holidays and throughout the year.

If you would like to donate, non-perishable items can be placed in the brown locker at the rear of the church. If you have perishable items, please call ahead (717-266-6785) to make sure someone will be at the Pantry to receive your items for proper storage.

If you would like to volunteer, please call Belle Craul at 717-870-4128.

Have a Very Happy Thanksgiving,
