Emory Church has a strong Missions Ministry that works hard to help those in need in all the ways we can, while providing a message of hope and love through our gifts and presence.

Mission Statement:

To provide ministry oversight to the outreach and mission ministries of Emory Church, including support of existing ministries and the development and implementation of new ministries, so that people in Street and beyond will know the love of Jesus Christ.

We participate in a wide variety of local and worldwide mission projects in some of the following ways:

  • School Lunch Program – We contribute to the lunch program for a Harford County public school, paying a portion or all of a school lunch debt for students who are unable.
  • AA Support Group – Emory Church hosts regular meetings for the Alcoholics Anonymous program.  There is a Tuesday night at 8:00 group meeting open to all, and a Saturday group meeting for women at 4:00 pm.  For information, contact Steve at 410-937-0462.
