Local and Global Outreach

Love God & Love Others

We are committed to reaching the communities around us, both locally and globally. Our local outreach efforts include tangibly meeting the needs of those around us through acts of service like community clean-up days, serving meals, operating a food bank, and more.

We have partnered with a local elementary school to bless families who are in need in our community. We do this through a few events and programs:

1) We bless the students with over 100 backpacks and their school supply list purchased for them each September

2) We host a Thanksgiving Feast at the school for families. There is live entertainment, family portraits, food, and grocery giveaways provided.

3) We collect toys and gift cards for students and families at Christmas

4) We host a community clean-day each Spring to beautify the school grounds and work in a community garden which we helped establish.

On top of this, we are give food and hygiene products to those in need each month.

Mission and Vision

This ministry exists to bless those in need, both physically and spiritually, in Rockland County. We are a Food Bank (not a Food Pantry). We collect non-perishable food items (list provided below) and deliver those goods to Food Pantries who are already doing great work in Rockland County.

There are many wonderful resources and non-profit services available in Rockland County, including 48 Food Pantries. Our mission is to partner with these organizations to bring help and wholeness to members of the community. See below for the list of Food Pantries and all other links.

If you are a member of Risen King Church and need assistance, or if you would like to talk or pray with a pastor, please complete a Care Request Card linked below. Please visit the links below to learn more about resources and services that are available.

Alliance Missions

For over a century, the Alliance family has joined together to bring the gospel to the least reached parts of our world. How? By extending our reach to the most neglected and by raising up networks of churches that multiply gospel access.

But we aren’t done yet...

Today’s Reality

Today over 4,000 people groups, representing 40% of our world’s population, have little or no chance to hear the message of Jesus.

But opportunities to walk into a country and proclaim His name are fewer and fewer. In today’s world, we must establish a meaningful, impactful gospel presence in every community we enter.

Resources in Rockland County

There are many wonderful resources available in Rockland County. Visit each of the websites linked below to find out more information about the availability of these sources of assistance. If you would like prayer, or to talk with a pastor at Risen King Church about your need for assistance, please complete a Care Request card.
