The focus of Local Missions is to give back to the communities we are located in (Danvers and Ipswich) and support the efforts of ministries located on the North Shore where we as a church and/or members of our church are involved.
Twice a year, once in the fall and once in the spring, FPC Serves seeks to organize our members in service projects for the communities of Danvers and Ipswich.
Please watch this website and/or the announcements to see what projects we will be doing in Ipswich and Danvers.
Organizations
Local organizations that are supported financially and with resources by the church are:
https://www.familypromisensb.org Dedicated to providing short term housing and case management for homeless families on the North Shore.
A safe home for domestic women (most of whom are from New England) who have been rescued from sex trafficking.
A sanctuary for those who have been rescued out of high control destructive groups or cults. |
http://www.straightahead.org
Provides support for the growing culture of action around foster care and adoption in our church and the surrounding Christian community. |
If you would like to participate in any of our FPC Serves dates or would like to get involved with any of these local mission groups, please contact Greg Smith at gregsmithna@comcast.net
