serve

The grace of God compels us to live lives of grateful service. We do this by sharing our resources and our time. We give 10% of what our congregation gives back out into the community, supporting organizations like the East Falls Community Fridge, Northern Children’s Services, Friends of Mifflin, and Urban Resources Development Corporation.

We also see it at part of our service to the community to share our building. Some of the groups that utilize our space are: East Falls Community Council, Alcoholics Anonymous & Narcotics Anonymous (six different groups), East Falls Tree Tenders, and Rutabaga Toy Library.

Since 2023, we have held an annual Sunday of Service in the spring. On this Sunday, we gather in the sanctuary for a brief opening time of prayer and reflection on Scripture and then move downstairs to work together to serve our neighbors. Past projects have included making sandwiches for local community fridges, assembling hygiene kits, and decorating bags for Meals on Wheels recipients. On this Sunday, we worship God through serving our neighbors in need.
