Caring For Others

and care for God's creation through education, advocacy, and hands-on ministry

The committee supports a variety of outreach efforts, including Neighborhood House,
blood drives, informative programs, Fair Trade initiatives, Habitat for Humanity, church
grounds beautification, and sewing and knitting projects that assist those in need.

Social Justice Initiatives

The ELCA generally understands social justice initiatives as a response to God’s grace
received through Christ. This response is guided through social statements, advocacy
efforts, and service ministries. Faith is lived out through love of neighbor and care for
creation. These commitments call us to be God’s hands at work in the world.


As James 2:26 reminds us, “For just as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith
without works is also dead.” Our faith, therefore, compels us to seek justice, serve our
neighbors, and care for the world God has entrusted to us, not as a means of earning
salvation, but as a witness to God’s redeeming work in Christ. Having been freed by
grace, we are freed to love and serve others.
