Deacons Ministry

The Deacons Ministry includes opportunities for Naperville Presbyterian Church to assist people in the community in practical ways. We have on-going relationships with several area agencies that provide services to those in need. Some examples are:  

• CareNet Pregnancy Information Center -- a place for those experiencing a crisis pregnancy  There is no charge for assessment and referral.
   
• Northern Illinois Food Bank -- an area distribution Center providing goods to food pantries throughout the western suburbs.
   
• Wayside Cross Rescue Mission/Lifespring Ministries -- a Christ-centered shelter for men and women in Aurora.
   
• Fox Valley Habitat For Humanity -- a Christian ministry of volunteers who help build quality housing for families that otherwise would be unable to afford their own house. NPC volunteers are helping Habitat build houses in the Fox Valley area.

We frequently organize work projects or fundraising events working with groups like these. Often it helps people connect by using their God-given gifts to help others. At Christmas, we organize a gift tree which allows someone from NPC the joy of giving area families in need a gift for their child.
