Mission
Do you know how many mission projects TPC supports? Do you know you are represented in our support in the broader community?
TPC has a rich history of supporting good works and sharing the joy of the Gospel beyond our walls, in our local and not so local community.
A list of the current local mission projects is shown below.
In addition, TPC encourages four special offerings of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.). Click below for information about each of these offerings. The following is a list of some other current mission opportunities: TPC also regularly participates in activities with other faith communities in the area. Click here for information about upcoming interfaith events.
On the fourth Sunday of each month we receive donations of non-perishable food items that benefit organizations in the community on a rotating basis. These organizations are currently Families Forward, the Hispanic Ministry of First Presbyterian Church of Santa Ana, and Laurel House. The next donations will be received on July 27, and they will go to Families Forward. Thank you for your continued support of this important ministry.
Families Forward Food Drive a Great Success!!!
Debbie Regele, Director of Volunteers for Families Forward, thanks TPC among the many volunteer groups who contributed to making the Food Drive on Saturday, May 3, a fabulous success. Barrels and barrels of food donations poured in thanks to all the volunteers at local grocery stores asking shoppers to help build the food supply for the summer months.
Special thanks to the TPC team of Judy Merker, Gail Greek, Mitch and Darlene Wolfe, Steve and Tarry Goeden, Bernie Jeltema and Sharon Jeltema who worked at the Whole Foods Market at the District. The market people went out of their way to be helpful and we collected “a ton of food.”
Thanks again for your support!
