The mission of the SHARE Program is to provide food, clothing, and emergency financial assistance to area families in need who do not qualify for government assistance or for whom that assistance is insufficient or delayed in coming. SHARE also collaborates with other organizations to provide access to services and information, with a goal to promote self-reliance while maintaining the dignity of clients.
SHARE FOOD PANTRY requests for October include canned fruit, flour, sugar, boxed cake mixes, baking supplies, coffee, tea, juice, and granola. The Pantry is also always in need of toilet paper, large size diapers, and small size Depends. Donations can be left in the cupboard in the narthex or in the container by the community room entrance. Many thanks for your continuing support!

“Habitat gives us an opportunity which is very difficult to find: to reach out and work side by side with those who never have had a decent home—but work with them on a completely equal basis. It’s not a big-shot, little-shot relationship. It’s a sense of equality.”— Jimmy Carter
Through a Faith Partner relationship with Greater Nashua Habitat for Humanity, we are able to express with our prayers, time, energy, and donations that all people are entitled to a safe place to call home.
“Our love should not be just words and talk; it must be true love, which shows itself in action” – 1 John 3:18
Anne-Marie House in Hudson, NH is part of Family Promise of Greater Nashua. The communal living facility accommodates up to 24 persons–mostly in family groups–who experience homelessness. Family Promise at Anne-Marie House offers these families shelter and supportive services, for up to two years.
Three staff persons oversee this program, and more than 400 active volunteers offer time and talents to make a “home …for now.” If you are 18 or older and would like to join trained volunteers from our congregation who provide hospitality at Anne-Marie House, please contact our World Service Team.
DRIVERS NEEDED: Meals on Wheels needs volunteers to deliver meals to homebound senior citizens and disabled adults in communities throughout Hillsborough County. Just a few hours of your assistance on the weekday of your choice from 10:30 am to 12:30 pm can help the elderly and disabled remain healthy and live independently at home. Training is provided. 603-424-9967
