• Nana Dolce, Outreach Director Clifton Park Baptist Church (CPBC) had an exciting year of outreach in which God’s grace was displayed through amazing provision for and fellowship with the community. Project Neighbor Care 2015 ended four full years of Project Neighbor Care (PNC. The initiative, which was launched in February 2011, offers free fresh produce, seasonal clothing and household items to families every first Saturday of the month. An astounding 94,062 pounds of food was distributed to nearly 2,500 households. These homes represent 8,057 individual persons, including 3,024 children and 1,997 seniors! Our 2015 numbers include a thousand more households served than in 2012. How good and gracious is our God who has been pleased to provide “daily bread” from our hands to so many men, women and children! We continue to deepen our partnership with Iglesia Bautista Cristo Vive. Pastor Jose Amaya and Cristo Vive have acquired a space at PNC where they provide monthly Spanish-speaking volunteers who minister to neighbors in prayer and in the sharing of the gospel. CPBC’s evangelism ministry also continues its monthly ministry at the market. May the LORD bring the fruit of salvation! All-Church Day of Service CPBC had its third annual All-Church Day of Service (DoS) on Sunday, September 6, 2015. DoS is a single day of action in which CPBC demonstratively shows God’s love to our neighbors through community engagement, evangelism, prayer, and service. 200 members into teams of 10-30 people. Groups scattered across the county in thirteen different service activities. Image/photo placeholder
Neighborhood Block Party The Outreach Team coordinated a neighborhood block-party in partnership with Montgomery Housing Partnerships (MHP), IMPACT Silver Spring and neighbors at the Glenville Road apartments. The event was packed with food, games for kids and adults, and community conversations. IMPACT Silver Spring facilitated a special neighbor’s exchange conversation that connected neighbors around shared concerns. Evangelism In 2015, we partnered with the Anacostia River Church in Southeast Washington DC for three months of door-to-door evangelism and street ministry in wards seven and eight. We were encouraged by the experience and were motivated to begin a once a month door-to-door and street evangelism in Silver Spring MD. CPBC partners with Pastor Jose Amaya and Cristo Vive in this ongoing monthly gospel-focused ministry. Turkeys and Toys for New Hampshire Estates Elementary School CPBC was approached by the New Hampshire Elementary School (NHEES) for food and toy support during the holidays. The school is the second most impoverished in the county--93.50% of the students at NHEES are below the poverty line and qualify for free and reduced meals at school. In partnership with the Capital Area Food Bank, CPBC welcomed and served some 130 families. In addition, 200 toys, donated through Second Chance Toys were delivered to students at NHEES .
