Caring Ministries
We seek to empower our church members to serve God and thus to advance His Kingdom. We realize that God calls certain members of our church to propose and to organize service projects while He calls other members to then join in this, His work. We seek to encourage, facilitate, and to coordinate these endeavors of Christian service.


Easter Baskets: Formula, diapers, and supplies for children from birth through six years is collected for Child Serv, a United Methodist agency providing help for children and parental support.


Elgin Crisis Center: The center provides support and housing for women in crisis. We assist with donations of needed supplies and toiletries.


Gifts from the Heart: An Advent project in which those interested can sign up to buy a gift for a needy child.


Meals for Millions/Potato Project: A Ministry of the Society of Saint Andrew to help salvage crops for food that would otherwise be wasted. It's a fund raising project, but it could be a work project of actual field gleaning.


Our Redeemer's Food Pantry: Hungry neighbors often stop by our church in search of food and comfort. Members contribute food to keep on hand for these children of God.


Soup Kitchen at United Church of Rogers Park: One of our church's many hunger ministries. We cook, serve and clean up for their Community Feast once a month.


Schaumburg Food Pantry: Feed our hungry neighbors by bringing non-perishable food items to the church narthex each Sunday. Volunteers deliver the food weekly to the Schaumburg Township Food Pantry.
