Our Missions

Our Missions include the following:

 

	Military Outreach Ministry - M.O.M. is a vital part of the outreach ministry here at Grace. The M.O.M. committee is a major mission of the Mariners, and also receives monetary donations from congregation members. Each week the committee delivers donations of household and kitchen goods to Camp Pendleton to be used by young Marine families. This is an excellent way to say "Thank You" to those who are making sacrifices for us all.
	Support our Servicemen/Women - Our SOS mission began in September, 2008, supplying care packages to deployed members of the Armed Forces. The boxes consisted of magazines, puzzle books, drink mixes, granola bars, soaps, handmade scarves and other hygiene items with personal cards and letters provided by church members and community resources. The men and women do not have to be members of our church. Your participation by giving, writing letters, sending cards, attending packing parties, and monetary donations for shipping are greatly appreciated. SALUTE to all members of the Armed Forces!
	Temecula & Murrieta Pantries - We support the two pantries both monetary and with food and clothing drives.
	Tecate Mission - Your cancelled stamps are sent to an organization in San Diego that sells them to stamp dealers, with the proceeds going to support the Tecate Mission. We also have Mission teams that make the trip to Tecate Mexico several times a year to work on the facilities.
	Ronald McDonald House - The pull-tabs from aluminum cans are collected and given to Ronald McDonald House at Loma Linda Hospital.
	Menaul School - The UPC codes from Campbell Soup labels go in support of the Menaul School.

	Christmas Shoe Box (Samaritan's Purse) - We collect decorated shoeboxes filled with small toys, clothes, school supplies and personal care items. These are then sent to Samaritan's Purse Operation Christmas Child Shoebox Ministry. We also send volunteers to the main collection center in Santa Ana to prepare the boxes for shipment.
	Angel Tree Prison Ministry - An estimated 1.7 million children in the United States currently have a father or mother behind prison bars. Angel Tree works by connecting parents in prison with their children through the delivery of Christmas gifts. Angel Tree provides church coordinators with a list of children to be served by our congregation. The coordinators contact the families of the children and arrange what gifts are to be purchased, and when they can be delivered. Grace Presbyterian Church has ministered to an average 50 children a year. This program usually begins in November when names are selected by members and gifts are purchased for the children. Once all the gifts have been purchased and wrapped, the gifts are delivered directly to the families' homes. Along with the gifts, volunteers share the good news of Jesus Christ with the children and their families. According to Sheri Holt, Angel Tree Ministry Coordinator, "Grace Presbyterian Church has often delivered presents to children who otherwise would have received nothing or very little for Christmas." Angel Tree is a ministry that reaches out to the children of inmates and their families with the love of Christ. Grace Presbyterian Church seeks to transform the lives of these families and to reconcile them to their Heavenly Father and each other.
