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.

January 2021 e-Newsletter

Announcement from Dennis E. Craul, NEFP Board: "Due to issues with COVID-19 among a few
volunteers and support staff, I have decided to close the Pantry for the month of January. This was a
difficult decision due to the need of our clients but the safety of our volunteers and support staff is of
utmost importance." The Pantry will re-open in February and all clients scheduled for January were
contacted and rescheduled. The hours of operation will be the same when we re-open, Tuesdays
(morning and evening), Wednesdays (afternoon) and Fridays (morning).

Thank you to ALL VOLUNTEERS, DONORS, and SUPPORT STAFF for helping us provide
supplemental groceries and personal care items to 176 people during the month of December 2020.
The total households (families) served was 69. We assisted 57 children, 65 adults, and 54 seniors.
The households served in December included 9 new families with 6 children, 10 adults and
4 seniors.

Volunteers are needed at the Food Pantry, please call 717-266-6785 and leave a message.

We are still NOT able to accept donations of food, non-perishables or personal care items. Monetary
contributions are always appreciated. Thank you for your support!!!

Stay healthy and safe in 2021.
