Outreach – HOME

It’s St. Martin’s turn again to help welcome HOME’s guests at the Presbyterian Church in Pluckemin on Sunday, 10 August. We need dinner delivered before 5 PM, and also 1 or 2 people to spend time with the guests from 5-9 PM. This is an easy way to help others. Please contact Kathy Shanklin with any questions.

Outreach – Summer 2026

We’re collecting back-to-school items for the Somerset County Department of Families and Children. A list is on the board in the narthex.

There is also a container on the table in the narthex for quarters for Laundry Love.

The Food Bank is in great need of food items, paper goods, and toiletries for our neighbors in Somerset County. We especially want to focus on personal items and cleaning products, such as toothpaste, feminine products, toilet paper, cleaning supplies, etc. Cash and checks are also greatly appreciated. There’s always a container on the stairs leading up to the choir loft.

Outreach – Easter 2026

We’re collecting items for baskets to give to the Bound Brook Board of Education before Easter. 

Candy, small toys, pencils, etc., would be greatly appreciated. The collection will run through Palm Sunday.
