Faith Presbyterian Church

Ministries

BelAir food bank - Each week, we collect items for the BelAir food bank, located at BelAir United Methodist Church on Shelley Mullis Rd. Though we give a specific idea of what to bring each week, based on what the food bank needs, all items are welcome!

Second Harvest food distribution - Several times a year, our church partners with BelAir United Methodist to sponsor a truck from the Second Harvest food bank in Charlotte. Church members join together for the distribution, helping to bag food donations and pass them out to families in need from this area. We have served up to 300 family units at one of these distributions, so the need is out there!

5th Sunday Offerings - On "fifth Sundays" of any month, we take up a special offering at worship to help to restock the "pastor's emergency fund" so that we can help folks from the community who come to the church with crises, such as power or heat about to be shut off, etc.

Lancaster Children's Home - The Faith congregation continues to minister with the Lancaster Children's Home. A number of groups, of which Faith church is one, often share a fun pizza dinner and some good fellowship with the children and staff. The dates that Faith serves as lead group for providing that meal will be well publicized. Additionally, we would like to collect names of folks who might be available at other times--particularly when they need some extra hands to accomplish the meal. A sign up sheet will be available.

Kairos Prison Ministry - Our church participates in this prison outreach by providing cookies for a yearly weekend outreach to the inmates.

Dimes for Hunger - Faith participates with the other churches of Providence Presbytery by collecting money each October to help feed the hungry. Funds are split between local and Central American ministries of our presbytery
