    Helping Hand’s Mission Statement

     

    Helping Hand is a program supported by the congregation of this church.  We supply food to people of our community on an emergency basis.  Other area churches and local organizations participate in this program by providing additional food and monetary donations that assist us in keeping the church pantry supplied.  These are our sole sources of assistance to aid those who come to us in need.


    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


    The Helping Hand Food Pantry is open on the first and third Wednesdays from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.* If it is your first time, please come before 12:00 noon. To qualify to receive food from the pantry, a picture I.D. is required.  Only one person per household (per address) is eligible to apply for assistance for the family.  Eligible participants can receive food from the pantry once every other month**.

     

    *may be closed due to bad weather, or a church event; it’s best to call ahead

    **subject to change depending on food supply

         

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


    Since 1989, the food pantry has served an increasing number of families every year and remains committed to addressing food insecurity in southeast Michigan where, as many as 1 in 7, households struggle to put food on the table.

    How can I donate food?

     

    Generally, you can drop off non-perishable food items to the church Monday through Thursday,

    9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., but please call ahead.

    SPRING SALAD LUNCHEON

    IN MEMORIAL PARLOR

    HOSTED BY PRESBYTERIAN WOMEN OF CHERRY HILL

    SATURDAY, MAY 10, AT 11:00 A.M.




    All women, and their guests, are invited to join us for this fun gathering. We’ll begin the morning with a unique program, “Mary, Her Lamb, and the Fords of Dearborn: The Story Behind the Story,” presented by Jennifer Ganem. We enjoyed the program she presented regarding the Dearborn Inn a few years ago and asked her back to present another of her programs. After the program, we’ll dedicate the PW Birthday Offering and enjoy a delicious salad lunch. Tickets for lunch are $5.00 and are available for purchase on Sunday mornings in Weir Foyer. The last day to purchase tickets is May 4. Please contact Sherry Brown, PW Moderator, if you have any questions. We hope you will join us!


    About the program:

    -Did Mary really have a little lamb? Find out! Get inside the well-known childhood poem as local area historian Jennifer Czerwick Ganem presents "Mary, Her Lamb, and the Fords of Dearborn: The Story Behind the Story."

    -Hear the research and connection that Clara and Henry Ford had to this world-famed poem and some of the controversy (yes, controversy!) surrounding the rhyme that most people believe is just a concocted fairy tale.

    -Right here in Dearborn we're closer to more "Mary" artifacts and intrigue than you might imagine. This humorous but true story will make listeners begin to think differently about the most famous lamb ever!


    All Cherry Hill women are invited to join us!
