Community Ministries
Christ Church is committed to living out the gospel commandment to help those in need. In our efforts to be faithful disciples, we engage in ministries that touch people in the Rockville community, the greater Metropolitan Area, and overseas.
Christ Church outreach activities include partnering with other organizations to alleviate poverty, hunger and homelessness. To learn more about the Outreach Committee, watch a video of a presentation from the Outreach Forum in February 2020.
We are currently focused on the following outreach areas, with new directions always a possibility:
Community Support and Development
The church is an active and longstanding partner with Community Reach of Montgomery County, a cooperative agency that provides housing, healthcare, education, and eldercare to the most vulnerable local residents.
English Conversation Club is a weekly discussion group designed to help non-native speakers of English improve their command of the language. It meets virtually most Mondays, mid-September through mid-May.
Hunger Relief
Hunger is prevalent but often hidden in our community. Christ Church puts a priority on feeding those who lack enough to eat.
Homelessness and Unemployment
Christ Church partners with Samaritan Ministry of Greater Washington, which provides step-by-step support for people who want to escape homelessness and unemployment.
Volunteers are encouraged to participate in Christ Church outreach programs. Some of our activities are temporarily suspended due to COVID-19, but other outreach activities at Christ Church are continuing through this difficult time. Contact us to learn more.
