Community Outreach

We are using and selling Equal Exchange fairly traded coffee, chocolate, and olive oil. We now only use Equal Exchange coffee for our church activities. Church folks can purchase fairly traded products during fellowship or by stopping in during office hours.

We know that this builds stronger farming communities, creates a more equitable trade model, and preserves our planet through sustainable farming methods.

We are an active partner with Family Promise of Greater Brandon to help homeless children and their families within our community to achieve lasting independence and escape the cycle of poverty. 

Families are temporarily housed in community churches, including Brandon Christian Church, with meals provided. With the help of a professional Social Worker and others, these homeless families will find jobs and housing.

Brandon Christian Curch provides food, lodging, support, and fellowship for these families one week every quarter.

The Emergency Care Help Organization of Brandon provides a variety of assistance programs for those living in our area. Our Congregation helps by providing non-perishable items for their food pantry.
