Faith in Action
 
OUR MISSION…Faith In Action mission is to serve alongside those in need.  We strive to build relationships and share the love of Jesus.  The Faith in Action committee arranges service projects that give members of St. Paul opportunities to physically make an immediate and personal difference in people’s lives.
OUR PARTNERS… We are developing close relationships with local organizations like Family Promise, Good News Home for Women, Habitat for Humanity, Grow a Row, Flemington Food Pantry, Homeless Solutions Soup Kitchen and  Morristown Shelter Support,  Center for Student Missions (www.csm.org), Appalachia Service Project (www.asphome.org).

City Service Mission (Formerly “Center for Student Missions”) is an opportunity for students to offer their time, energy and sweat to support these indigenous “ministry sites.” CSM plugs students and chaperones into a variety of hands-on ministry opportunities to ensure that the time in the city is spent supplying substantive help to God’s people in the city.

 Good News Home for Women is a Christian residential program for women recovering from substance abuse. The 3rd Wednesday of every month is our night to provide “Creative Therapy” and we always need volunteers to teach a craft/skill/project that these 12 women can take away with them as a possible talent or simply a fun, loving memory. Sign up at the Welcome Desk in the lobby of the church or contact Karen Brooks at kabrooks@aedo.net.

Flemington Food Pantry
Flemington Food Pantry

Hi Everyone at St. Paul,

The clients at the Flemington Area Food Pantry are very grateful for the supplemental food they receive.  Among some of the comments are:

“I don’t know what I would do without the food I get here.  Food stamps just aren’t enough.”

“Thanks so much for all this food.  It means a lot to me to be able to get good food for my family.  Someday I hope I can give back.  I’m in a bad way now.  Thank you.” client

Achieving Success...More than 74% of the families we serve find housing in less than nine weeks because of our intensive case management and community support.
