In October 2002, St. Andrews’ session voted to establish what has been named the ‘Cup Runneth Over’ fund. This fund would be financed with 50% of any annual surplus St. Andrew’s will have in the future.
As of Financial Year 2024 fund has helped 37 different individuals, families and organizations over the last 2 years with rental assistance, housing costs, temporary lodging, utility bills, purchases of prescription medication, aid in recovery from a fire, a computer a stroller, a toddler bed, and help entering a recovery program.
The Mary Randall Center, part of Meeting Ground’s ministry to homeless folks in Cecil county, needed a clothes dryer and a water heater. These appliances were purchased using Cup Runneth Over funds.
There is a process for evaluating participation, does in conjunction with the Circle of Love in Christ. If you or anyone you know is in a crisis situation, please reach out to the Church office (302-738-4331). All referrals are kept strictly confidential.
Thank you to members and others whose faithful financial support has made all this outreach possible. It has made a real difference in our community.
