Misfit Heroes

Misfit Heroes is offering a Grab & Go outside First Pres on August 24th. In order to make that event happen, they're asking for help. The event and all the details are on Facebook here.

Please consider donating non-perishable food, hygiene items, and gently used clothes. This isn’t just about homelessness; it’s about standing in the gap for struggling families, vulnerable seniors, and anyone going through a tough time. Drop-off is here at our church building.

Misfit Heroes is a ministry started by Courtney Jackson. You may know her as the person who runs the daycare upstairs and she is also the new director of YoungLives single parents ministry.

Block Party

Norristown Night Out Block Party

August 5 from 5:30-7:30pm

500 block of Haws Ave

Two years ago we had a church presence at this important community event to hand out cold water, information for our church, and to just greet folks and be a part of the community! Last year it unfortunately was cancelled due to the weather. However, the community and the borough of Norristown are hopeful to bring it back.

Needs for this event:

• individual bottles of COLD water (feel free to bring them in ahead of time and we can store them in the fridge), 

• coolers and ice (we can also store bags of ice in our freezer),

• and, most importantly, your presence at the event to meet the community.

Accessibility to this event is improved from past versions, so dropping off water, ice, and coolers in the middle of this event is possible -- please just enter Haws Ave off Marshall St. Thank you for reaching out to our community!

Norristown Hospitality Center

A note from our mission partners & an FYI about where they will be for the next year:

On May 27th, the Norristown Zoning Hearing Board made a decision that has left us feeling disheartened, as they denied the Norristown Hospitality Center’s request for a zoning variance. We understand how disappointing this is for everyone affected, and it’s natural to feel concerned. Despite the challenges ahead, we want to assure you that our commitment to advocating for our guests remains unwavering. The needs of the hundreds of individuals who rely on our services are our highest priority, and we will continue to stand by them. As the leadership of the Center comes together to reflect and strategize for the future, we have also put in place interim plans for the next 6-12 months. We are here to support our community during this time, and we want to share how we intend to move forward together.

We have moved to the Senior Adult Activities Center of Montgomery County, Montco SAAC Norristown Building, in their unoccupied space at 536 George Street in Norristown. The entrance to our offices will be on Chain Street. Services at our former location on Church St. are now ceased. We have not officially changed our mailing address so you can still use the same address until we make an announcement. Our team will be working diligently to ensure a seamless transition that will minimize any inconvenience or disruption to our guests.
