The Social Action and Missions Committee is focused on creating an awareness of Christian mission activities and empowering individuals to become Christians in action through outreach activities within our church family, our community, and the world.

As Christians, we are challenged to share our material resources, time, and talents with others. The Social Action & Missions Committee addresses that challenge by selecting appropriate recipients for Community Church’s financial support and for providing opportunities for church members to put our faith in action.

We support local, national and international organizations and institutions that provide housing for the homeless, food for the hungry, pastoral and medical care for the sick, resources to lift people from poverty, educational assistance, basic humanitarian aid to victims of natural disasters and other worthy causes.

In the past year, Community Church has supported:
 · Back Bay Mission (Biloxi)
 · Central Congregational Church (New Orleans)
 · Fisher House Foundation (Maryland)
 · Habitat for Humanity (Newark);
 · Heifer Project International
 · Hoffman Homes for Youth (Lancaster, PA)
 · Human Needs Food Pantry (Montclair)
 · Lancaster Theological Seminary
 · Model Motherless Babies Home (Nigeria)
 · And others

Community Church also participates in four annual offerings through the United Church of Christ:
 · One Great Hour of Sharing in March;
 · Strengthen the Church in June;
 · Neighbors in Need in October;
 · The Christmas Fund in December.
