Ivanhoe Presbyterian Church

Current Activities

Ivanhoe's Presbyterian Church Outreach Programs all started with God’s Plan for us, you and me, to continue the work of Jesus Christ throughout the world. God has promised that our needs will be supported as we respond to the needs of his work throughout the world. In this time of so many worldly needs, our local community people are sometimes forgotten. One way we can strengthen God’s Plan is to provide assistance to the needy people in the local community, as well as the world.

Community Outreach

• Benefit - Benefit Suppers, Hymn Sings and Cake Auctions, etc. are held at Ivanhoe Church to help the needy families of our community. These events are held through out the year in addition to Food Baskets at Christmas time. We also provide both non-perishable food and funds to support our local food bank.  (Go to Contact Us page)

• Four-Cents-A-Meal-Program - Ivanhoe's Four Cent A Meal Offering will be collected to share God’s love with people experiencing need. More than 800 million people in the world go hungry. In developing countries, 6 million children die each year, mostly from hunger-related causes. In the United States, 12 million children live in households where people have to skip meals or eat less to make ends meet. That means one in ten households in the U.S. are living with hunger or are at risk of hunger. Ivanhoe supports the world program, administered by the Shenandoah Presbytery, and our local programs, such as the Mathias Food Bank.

• Heifer - Ivanhoe Presbyterian Women hopes to enable other women world wide to help their families by providing them with the animals or poultry and the skills to care for these animals. By providing protein for their diets, the overall health of the entire family is improved. We collect money on the third Sunday of each month and in January of the following year we decide which animals that we will provide and send our requests and money to Heifer International. More information...  

Community Together

Ivanhoe Church initiated the "Community Together" program on September 8, 2005 at Ivanhoe Church, with 28 Christians in attendance. This program invites all community churches to participate in Bible Study, Hymn Sing, Fellowship and enjoy a great meal too. Our program has continued ever since, with many local churches hosting the Community Together activities. This is a good program with many guest speakers and talented performers! If you are interested in attending, participating or have questions, Go to Contact Us page. Don’t miss it!

Vacation Bible School

Ivanhoe's Vacation Bible School is held each summer and we invites children of all ages to join us in Bible Study, Crafts, Games and Snacks. The Bible School is one week long for approximately three hours each day. We had 19 children in attendance this year. Many thanks to all that helped make this a faith fill activity and a special thanks to our leader, Connie Wood.  Go to Contact Us page
