THE DEACONS

There is a board of 12 Deacons at the FH Presbyterian Church.  They are voted on by the congregation and serve a 3 year term.  A Deacon is charged with "Blessing Our Community".  This is done by helping those in need with financial assistance and by offering each one comfort in the knowledge of God.  Praying with each individual/family is part of our ministry.  Our Deacon funds are gifts from The Lord and offerings given.  Due to the cost of living, we have a growing number requesting assistance from our Church Deacons.

Most Frequent Requests

Most often we get requests for Rent and Utility assistance.  We refer people to the Food Bank but also do assist periodically with a food coupon. We have a limit to the amount we are able to help a household per year.  We work closely with the Family Resource Center and also St. David's Episcopal Church.  We do not provide overnight lodging due to liability.  

How To Make A Request
