About Christian Ministries

Christian Ministries of Delaware County is a non-profit, social service agency that serves the poor and needy of our community with emergency assistance through its programs and commissions.

Our Mission

As a witness of Jesus Christ, and as God provides resources, Christian Ministries of Delaware County seeks to serve and care for the spiritual and physical needs of all people, to speak out in word and deed on issues of social justice and Christian morality, and to express the oneness Christians are given through Jesus Christ’s life, death and resurrection while respecting the rich diversity of our many traditions.

We believe in…

Value
that every person has value, and is worthy of assistance
Diversity
that diversity is valued as a source of strength;
Service
in service to God, in focused ways that foster self-sufficiency
Teamwork
in coordinated efforts to reduce or avoid duplication
Expanded Services
that we can provide services beyond the scope of those provided by individual churches.

Community Strength
that we can strengthen the community by serving individuals;
Our Greatest Resource
that our greatest resource is our dedicated volunteers and staff;
Information Sharing
in collecting, and sharing information of interest to the religious community;
Generosity
that we can be generous, because the Lord provides generously for us.

Whatever you did for one of the least of these…you did for me.

Matthew 25:40
