How we Serve
Our missions serve others while creating tangible expressions of our gratitude for God’s love and blessings.
Kettle Moraine & Waukesha Food Pantries
Our congregation helps prevent hunger in the Wales area by gathering non-perishable food items and cash donations each Sunday in addition to other special drives and events to support this crucial need in our community.
The Hope Center
Church members regularly volunteer to prepare and serve breakfasts monthly and dinners semi-annually at the new Hope Center, a facility in Waukesha, Wisconsin, that is dedicated to reducing the risks of poverty by helping people meet basic needs.
Habitat for Humanity Restore Center
Adult members of the church assist at Habitat for Humanity Restore Center every second Saturday monthly from 10am-1pm — while enjoying the camaraderie and satisfaction of helping those in need.
Christmas Giving
Jerusalem Presbyterian Church adopts several families during the holiday season, providing gifts and other assistance to bring Christmas joy. We also gather toys for the annual Ernie Glenn Christmas Toy Store at Milwaukee’s Christ Presbyterian Church.
Food for The Journey Garden
JPC, along with three other churches in the area support this mission. The harvest is a mission outreach to the neighborhood surrounding Apostle Presbyterian Church in West Allis. Fresh vegetables are distributed every Wednesday afternoon to 200 families along with non-perishable food items. The goal is to help solve the problems of Milwaukee food deserts and food disparities in our community.
Presbyterian Disaster Assistance
Our congregation supports global missions of Presbyterian Church USA through One Great Hour of Sharing and other special offerings.
