As a “Matthew 25 Congregation” within the Presbyterian Church…
…we are committed to finding ways to carry out this Bible chapter’s six directives for meeting human needs. One familiar example – “I was hungry, and you gave me food” – is currently addressed, in part, with our large Abundant Food Pantry distribution every Tuesday.
Much remains to be done; you are invited to help find ways to meet more needs in this community and beyond. For more “Matthew 25 Congregation” information, click here.
