Outreach

A strong commitment to mission is a core value of Cedar Heights Community Presbyterian Church members who believe that serving others, deepens our relationship with God and with God’s people. Working together, we know that we grow closer to each other, to those we serve, and most importantly to the Lord through mission and service. Cedar Heights Community Presbyterian Church (CHCPC) members have stated:

  • We’ve been blessed. Giving to others is a way to share those blessings.
  • The Bible charges us to “love our neighbors,” including our service and our finances.
  • Outreach giving is a way of witnessing God’s many blessings in our lives.

The value placed on mission at CHCPC is shown by generous support from the operating fund used solely for mission and outreach activities. Priorities have been established for the use of mission funds and guide the outreach committee in determining support to agencies, organizations and projects as follows:

  • Hunger – Four local organizations are supported including:
    1. Presbyterian Sunday Supper held at First Presbyterian Church, Waterloo, IA
    2. Northeast Iowa Food Bank (www.northeastiowafoodbank.org)
    3. Crop Walk through Church World Service & the NEIFB
    4. Salvation Army – Feeding Program
  • Helping Youth & Families – Five organizations are supported including:
