AkronFCC unconditionally affirms all people as we live out our call to follow Jesus Christ and his teaching of inclusive love.
Ministries
Church ministries are vital to the community, providing activities and services that foster spiritual growth and mutual support. At AkronFCC, our ministries extend help to those in need, both within the church and the broader community, embodying the love and kindness taught by Jesus.
Food Pantry
Founded in 1982, The Feeding Hope Food Pantry is a Network Partner of the Akron-Canton Regional Foodbank and provides distribution of groceries to members of the community with no residency restrictions.
The pantry is open:
- Mondays from 6:30 – 7:30 p.m.
- Tuesdays from 9:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.
Prayer Blankets
Prayer Blankets provide comfort and peace for the sick, hospitalized, grieving, recovering, or those celebrating new life or just need a prayer blanket. The blankets are tangible reminders that God’s love surround them. Each blanket is prayed over and blessed by our ministers and congregation. This powerful ministry touches lives with comfort, healing, peace and joy, and is a reassurance that no one is alone.
PB&J Backpacks
Recognizing the food insecurity in our community, AkronFCC runs a weekly PB&J Backpack Ministry that serves the elementary students at Mason Community Learning Center. Every Friday, during the school year, volunteers pack lunch bags of food, which are delivered to the children at Mason CLC, who may not have food at home over the weekend.
