An important part of “Being Church” is extending beyond our church walls and serving our community in Gettysburg and throughout Adams County.
There are many community organizations that St. James supports financially, but more importantly through acts of service. If you are interested in learning more about a particular area of service, we would likely be able to put you in touch with a member who is active there.
Examples of places where St. James members serve are:
- Adams County Rescue Mission
- Lutheran Camping Corporation (Camp Nawakwa and Camp Kirkenwald)
- Gettysburg Area School District
- Gettysburg C.A.R.E.S.
- Gettysburg Community Soup Kitchen
- Holiday Family Outreach
- Gettysburg Ministerium
- The Gleaning Project
- Habitat for Humanity
- Lutheran Advocacy Ministry of Pennsylvania (LAMPa)
- Ruth’s Harvest
- South Central Community Action Programs (SCCAP)
- Seminary Food Pantry
