Outreach and Social Justice

Our Outreach Ministries at St. John’s:
  • Human Needs Food Pantry, in Montclair. People bring food for the pantry every Sunday and we sponsor families for Thanksgiving Dinner.
  • Macheo Children’s Center, in Kenya. This is our international outreach. We help to feed malnourished children in Kenya and provide them with clothes and supplies so they are able to attend school.
  • MESH, Montclair Emergency Services for the Homeless. St. John’s provides dinner to those in need on a monthly basis.
  • North Porch, for single moms and babies in Newark. Parishioners contribute essential baby and toddler needs all year long and help out at the Newark location.
  • Prison Ministry, we help meet the needs of the children whose parents are incarcerated.
  • Real House, a women’s half-way house in Montclair. We donate linens, kitchenware and clothing year round to help give these women a new start.
  • St. Paul’s Men’s Shelter. Parishioners work together monthly to assemble a meal which is then taken to and served at the Paterson location.
  • Seamen’s Church Institute, for sailors at Port Newark. Our “Tuesday Group” knits hats and scarves when they gather together weekly for men at sea.
  • 4C’s, childcare financial assistance in Paterson. The congregation sponsors a back-pack drive and toy drive for the children of 4C’s.

We also provide a home to groups that support the diverse needs of our larger Montclair community, including:
  • Alcoholics Anonymous
  • Al-Anon
  • Chinese Medicine Organization
  • Hungarian Children’s School for Language & Culture
  • Magic for Muggles Camp throughout the summer
  • Montclair Academy of Dance & Laboratory of Music
  • Music Together, “Mommy & Me” music for babies and toddlers.
  • New Jersey School of the Dramatic Arts
  • Parlez Vous Francais, Children’s School for French Language & Culture
