MISSION AND OUTREACH
Helping others…
Mission and outreach are joyous and essential elements of the First Presbyterian Church of Logan. Our main focus continues to be reaching out in love in our community. Highlighted below are our major outreach programs and would welcome you to join us in assisting others in our community.
Community Meal
Second Thursday of each month from 5:00 to 6:00 p.m.
We invite anyone in the community to join us for a warm meal on the second Thursday of each month in Fellowship Hall (Westminster House). Meals are also delivered that evening to the Hocking Hills Inspire Shelter. These meals are prepared and served by various groups within the church and community organizations.
Food Pantry
First and Third Thursdays of each month from 4:30 to 6:00 p.m.
The goal of the food pantry is to help provide food and other essential items, which helps some of our community neighbors through the month. Canned and packaged food products, along with various fresh and frozen items are available. In addition, we provide some cleaning and personal hygiene products, including infant and adult diapers. The food pantry has been growing since 2021 due to our partnerships, grants and generous donations from our congregation and community.
The Good Neighbor Gift Market
Close to the holidays, the Good Neighbor Gift Market offers alternative gift giving ideas by donating to local service and mission groups. These alternative gifts purchased empower people to help themselves and others. You can honor your family and friends during the holiday season by giving to local charities. 100% of the proceeds go directly to selected organizations.
The Good Samaritan Fund
This fund is distributed to Hocking County residents who have immediate emergency needs. Requests are screened and must meet established criteria. If you would like to support this fund, designate First Presbyterian, Logan under your Kroger account community awards points.
We are a Matthew 25 Church
Being part of the Matthew 25 movement is a shared dedication to the vision of building congregational vitality, dismantling systemic poverty, and eradicating structural racism. Come and join us to help define and roll out some exciting plans within this program.
Volunteers are always welcome and appreciated.
