Outreach: Social Justice | Senior Center | Service Committee

Social Justice

 

Our members and friends work in many areas to help make this a better world--environmental advocacy, human rights, and various social service projects.

Senior Center

 

We share an outreach ministry to the senior members of our community through a Senior Center in our church. The Town of Lancaster rents space from Monday through Thursday for a noontime meals program for seniors. Our members and friends volunteer in the Senior Center.
