EPWORTH MISSIONS

We are working together, serving the community, using our gifts, talents and energy to make difference in people’s lives in the name of Jesus Christ to the glory of God

The Bread of Life Food Pantry was established in 2009 as a ministry of Epworth in cooperation with other houses of worship in the area. We primarily serve those in need of food in the tri-boro area of Palmyra, Cinnaminson and Riverton but no one is turned away. We receive food from the South Jersey Food Bank as well as donations from the community. Currently we distributing food once a month using a grab-n-go  style. We are thankful for the generosity of our community and the many volunteers that serve those in need.

Donations are accepted on Wednesdays from 1 – 3 pm and on Thursdays from 7 – 8 pm.  Distribution is on the 3rd Saturday of the month from 9 – 1.

Our Prayer Shawl Ministry has made hundreds of shawls over the years. Each shawl is individually made with the recipient and their need ever before them as create every stitch. Shawls have brought comfort to those who grieve a loss, dealing with illness or a life challenge. However, shawls have been created for celebrations including weddings, baptism, or other life moments. We are thankful for this ministry that expresses Jesus’ love in the warmth of each shawl.
