Outreach Ministries

Music Ministry — Our Adult Choir sings at Worship each week as well as at special services, including the Christmas and Easter Contatas.  They practice each Wednesday night at 7:00 p.m.

Meals-on-Wheels — Alamance County Meals On Wheels is a nonprofit agency that provides nutritional assistance to medically frail, disabled and homebound citizens of Alamance County and surrounding areas.  Our church provides volunteers one week a month to deliver meals to those in need.

Stone Soup Menus — Our church proudly hosts and supports Stone Soup Menus, a food nonprofit. Founded in April 2020 as a response to Covid, the mission of Stone Soup Menus is “Reducing hunger in Alamance County by preparing and delivering nutritious meals.” Stone Soup cooks nutritious meals creatively planned around donations from community gardens, restaurants, and individuals, and serves those who have difficulty cooking for themselves. This includes referrals from social services as well as those on the Meals on Wheels waiting list and those not covered within the parameters of that program. Spending less than $250 a month, Stone Soup feeds more than 130 people a week. Feel free to reach out to the church or pastor for more information and chances to serve.

S.A.F.E.—We contribute to Southern Alamance Family Empowerment, which provides food assistance to families in need. Open very Tuesday and Saturday (except the first Saturday of the month) at 9am. 5950 HWY 87 S, Graham, NC 27254. For more information on SAFE, see http://www.safealamance.org/

Snackpack ministry—We support families from Alexander Wilson Elementary School by providing weekend food assistance through their “snackpack ministry”

Alexander Wilson Elementary School partnership—We partner with our neighboring elementary school for special projects, tutoring, and volunteering.

Fall Festival—Every year, we have a wonderful fall festival with BBQ, live auction, country store, baked goods, crafts, and great food and fellowship for all.

Worship — Our regular Sunday Services are as follows:

Sunday School – 10:00 a.m.

Worship Service – 11:00 a.m.

Our worship services are traditional, but relaxed. Children are welcome in the service or in the nursery. We seek to provide meaningful experiences of God, where you can feel God’s presence through music, the scriptures, and the message, as well as the fellowship of others on the journey. We welcome you!
