Current Outreach Efforts - 

  • New Meal Ministry with St. Gabriel's Episcopal Church 
    Starting in February, we will be cooking and delivering a meal to the community at St. Gabriel's Episcopal Church in North Philadelphia (Feltonville). We plan to cook the meal in Riverside Hall on Thursday, February 5, at 2pm, and will deliver it on Saturday, February 7. 
  • Collecting Donations for the Food Pantry
    at Snyder Avenue Congregational Church, which serves many local immigrant and refugee families. Donation basket available in the back of the church.
  • Volunteering with the Philadelphia Ukranian Cathedral
    to provide clothing to Ukranian Immigrants and Refugees. Contact info@old-swedes for more details.

Recently, we also assisted families in our congregation with food insecurity issues related to the lapse in SNAP benefits. Looking ahead, we are investigating another opportunity to provide meals through St. Gabriel's Episcopal Church in North Philadelphia, and the potential to work with POWER Interfaith on advocating for affordable housing in Philadelphia. If you have any questions, or want to get more invovled, please contact Jill Duink (jillddd@hotmail.com) or Rev. Chris (rector@old-swedes.org).
