MISSIONS & MINISTRIES
Our mission in life is to bring glory to God. We nurture our faith through worship, prayer, fellowship, education, and outreach across all life spans. We serve our community with care and compassion, engaging in both local and global missions and outreach.
PROJECT OUTREACH – FOOD PANTRY
We support our local food pantry serving the Royersford and Spring City communities with food and household items collected as part of our weekly offertory during worship. Members of our congregation serve at the Food Pantry monthly for community distribution.

POTTSTOWN BEACON OF HOPE
Beacon of Hope provides year-round emergency shelter for Pottstown residents experiencing homelessness at the Warming Center. In January, members of our mission team provided a meal of beef barbeque, rolls, mac -n-cheese, and brownies.
ECO PLASTIC PRODUCTS of DELAWARE (ECOP)
Plastic bottle caps and lids are collected to support Eco Plastic Products of Delaware, a non-profit organization. ECOP recycles eligible plastic items to make useful and sustainable consumer products with a mission to eliminate plastic waste. The consumer products are then donated to other non-profit organizations and can also be purchased by individuals, municipalities, companies, and organizations.
For our Lenten mission in March, we collected dry dog and cat food for the Animal House Project, located on Robinson Street in Pottstown. Animal House Project is committed to addressing the needs of at-risk animals and their dedicated families -
"At times, they are the last option for families to keep their companion pets at home." They offer comprehensive support to vulnerable animals, including rescuing, adopting, and facilitating veterinary care and food access.
OPERATION 143
In August, we collected food items to support Operation 143's Student Weekend Backpack Program. Operation 143 is a non-profit organization operating in Pottstown.
