Our Ministries

  • Clothing to Go Shed

    Clothing Ministry

    One of our ministries is a gently used clothing Shed, Our ‘Free Clothes to Go’ shed. It is open typically on Saturdays and Sundays 9 AM to 4 PM and people can come and help themselves to whatever clothing they need during those times.

    Donations are welcome any time and can be dropped off during office hours. Please call our office at (518) 869-6281 to arrange this.

  • Caring Cupboard Food Pantry cabinet

    Food Pantry Ministry

    Outside the education wing of the church (West side- to the right of our building as you face it from Central Avenue) is one of our other ministries - our ‘Caring Cupboard Food Pantry’. This is open 24 hours / 7 days a week for both donations and to help those who may need some assistance with getting enough food to meet their needs. It operates on a ‘Give what you can, take what you need’ basis.

    Donations to this are met in a variety of ways. You can drop off groceries yourself, or contribute financially to help items to be purchased. (You can securely donate to the church via our donate link and mark it as for the food pantry or you can contact the office to arrange your donation) We do ask if you drop off items that they be for the most part non-perishable items. Most items do not stay long however as there is a constant need.

    If you are in need of food, feel free to take what you need.

    Please contact the church office at (518) 869-6281 if you have any questions

  • Book Barn cabinet

    Book Library Ministry

    Outside the education wing of the church (West side- to the right of our building as you face it from Central Avenue) is one of our other ministries - our ‘Book Barn’. This is open 24 hours / 7 days a week for both donations and for those who wish to borrow or take books. It operates on a ‘Give what you can, take what you like’ basis.

    Donations are able to be dropped off any time. We only ask that the books be in good condition and not be text books. Generally most other books that would be of interest to others are ok.
