Edgebrook Covenant Church actively supports a number of local mission initiatives. These include:
Crafty Angels, a knitting ministry that provides hand knitted gloves, scarves, mittens, afghans, prayer shawls, and handmade blankets for the need locally, nationally and around the world. Get involved by donating yarn, money, or joining our Crafty Angel knitters and crocheters. The Crafty Angels can be found on Facebook.
Swedish “Cupboard” Food Pantry was created to improve access to food in a “no questions asked” manner. It runs out of the Galter Medical Pavilion of Swedish Hospital in Chicago (on the corner of California Ave & Foster Ave, in the Albany Park neighborhood). Get involved by donating food supplies via the bin in the Narthex. (A list of requested items is regularly updated and can be found near the donation bin). To volunteer to run a drop-off to the Cupboard, contact the church office.
Feed My Starving Children. Volunteers from all walks of life come together with family, friends, co-workers and strangers to feed starving children. Edgebrook Covenant volunteers to hand-pack rice, soy, dried vegetables and a nutritionally complete blend of vitamins and minerals into bags which are then sealed, boxed, placed on pallets and shipped to our incredible partners working hard to reach the neediest children around the world. Get involved by contacting the church office if you are interested in volunteering.
