Food Pantry
The current food pantry is a continuation of the centuries-old custom of taking care of widows, orphans and the homeless through the Deacons Fund since the reformation in the 1500’s.  It serves people in the neighborhood and is managed by a Community Outreach Worker with the help of volunteers.  Last year, the food pantry served 361 households, many of them several times.
​
​CROP Hunger Walk
First Church members participate in the annual CROP hunger walk, a national fundraising event organized by the Church World Services which distributes the proceeds to local food pantries and to international relief efforts.  www.churchworldservice.org
