Food Insecurity
For I was hungry and you gave me food to eat. Matthew 25:35
​
Our Little Free Food Pantry is available 24/7, 365 days of the year. It is stocked with canned goods, staples, tuna and meats. In the winter months, we add items such as socks and gloves.
We also grow organic vegetables to supplement the distributions of our area food pantry partners.
Immigration
The stranger who resides with you shall be to you as the citizen among you; you shall love them as yourself Leviticus 19:34
We join with other congregations and community organizations in the region and around the country to stand for dignity and rights of families who are threatened by outdated and ineffectual immigration policies.
We are called by the gospel to love our neighbor and to stand with those suffering and oppressed in the midst of the current immigration crisis.
From 2017 to 2021 we were a Sanctuary Church, housing Alex Garcia and accompanying his U.S. citizen wife and children to protect him from unjust deportation the family from being separated.
Partners
We are better together!
We often partner with community organizations to accomplish more than we could alone.
Our partners include UCC sibling congregations, Interfaith Committee on Latin America, Migrantes Unidos, Latinos En Axion, Migrant and Immigration Community Action Project, Metropolitan Congregations United, Tent Mission StL, Winter Outreach, MO Jobs with Justice, and MapleGOOD.
