NPC Food Bank –
The Food Bank was setup and organized by church members around 2007. We saw a need to offer food to members and families who were hard hit economically.  The Outreach Ministry and the volunteers have helped make this worthwhile project a reason for hope to many people in our community. After a number of years operating independently, we partnered under St. Mary’s Food Bank and became a food rescue food bank in order to serve more families. The Food Bank provides needed nourishment for an average of 200 families a month. We have maintained an A rating through the Health Department and St Mary’s for our clean, safe and organized food pantry. Volunteers need to obtain a food handlers card to participate.  Food is received on Mondays and Fridays, distributed to the public on Wednesday 8:00-9:00 a.m. each week (or when the food is gone).  Contact Pat Chamberlain to volunteer or donate.

Tumbleweed Elementary School – 

Starting in the 2020 school year, and annually since then, we donated backpacks, lunchboxes, and classroom supplies for students and teachers.  We, also, gave a thank you gift bag of goodies to every school employee twice a year.   

With the vote to close our church, we donated all of our remaining craft supplies from scissors, glue, markers, crayons, lots of colored paper and numerous art supplies along with bulletin board decorating items. In addition, we gave outdoor play items like hula-hoops, tennis balls, and other various size balls to Tumbleweed Elementary School the last week of May so the teachers would have these supplies to begin their year in July.  In addition, we donated a drum set and electric keyboard to their music department.

We have gifted Moon Valley High School with a pole  mounted orchestral bell. 

Financial Support to Mission Aviation Fellowship, Samaritan’s Purse and to church planters Caleb and Summer Shocklie (through The Antioch Partners). You can donate directly or label your donation to our church for these missions.

If you shop at Fry’s Food and Drug, link your account through their Community Rewards site and select Northminster Presbyterian Church (Phoenix). A percentage of your purchase is forwarded to the church, and we give 100% of that money to Samaritan’s Purse.
