December Missions Moment
One of the local ministries that Faith church has supported for many years is Beyond Shelter (formerly The Religious Coalition for Emergency Human Needs).  Beyond Shelter Frederick provides the Frederick County community: two emergency shelters; financial support for emergency rental/utility assistance, and security deposits, financial support for prescriptions and emergency dental procedures, and programming to support people once they have been re-housed.  In addition, Case Managers provide clients the tools and support needed to create personal strategies to address the barriers preventing them from establishing employment and housing security.  Beyond Shelter is the largest provider of shelter and homeless prevention services in the County.
