A Christ Centered, MISSION MINDED Family
"Love your neighbor as you love yourself." These words of Jesus invite us into a life of service and care for those around us.
At SPC, we define mission as spreading the gospel of Jesus Christ by the sharing of God's love and hope through word and deed - serving the people of the world with our presence, our resources, and our tangible care.
We believe following Jesus into the world literally means that we want to serve Christ anywhere and everywhere we can, in our local communities and across the globe. For some this will mean getting on an airplane and traveling outside the country. For others this will mean serving weekly dinners to the hungry. In these ways we are joining in Christ's work in our world.

HOLIDAY GIFT BARN
Every November, we typically have a Christmas tree filled with gift tags for Issaquah Food and Clothing Bank’s Holiday Gift Barn in Sanctuary Hall. Pickering Barn was then turned into a giant department store where families who needed help could shop for free. This year, IFCB is adjusting its program to ensure everyone’s safety while still providing the best holiday experience possible for families. They are asking for donations of $25 gift cards to local businesses as well as Walmart, H&M, and REI. With SPC’s help, IFCB hopes to provide resources to 2,000 children this holiday season! $25 gift cards can by mailed by November 23 to:
Issaquah Food & Clothing Bank
179 1st Ave SE Issaquah, WA 98027
Attn: Holiday Gift Barn Program
Please include your name and address!

MARIANWOOD
For over ten years SPC has had the privilege of supporting Providence Marianwood as one of our mission partners. This incredible ministry runs non-profit skilled nursing home in Issaquah, Sammamish and Bellevue that provide long-term care for those who can no longer afford it. Their staff work tirelessly to provide 24-hour care and rehabilitation to so many in our community.
As a non-profit Marianwood relies on community financial support to make this ministry happen. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, they are not able to hold their usual fundraising events, so are in desperate need of support. This year they are holding a virtual fundraiser instead. We invite you attend this fundraiser or make a donation by clicking the button below.
