SERVING
One of our Core Values is to be missional both at home and overseas. "We love to serve our community as our response to Jesus' love for us."

CARING MINISTRIES
The Deacon Board
Deacons offers a ministry of compassion, care, and service to share the love of Jesus Christ. As elected leaders, they serve a three year term in various programs that reach our members, visitors, and the community.
Food Pantry
MLEPC members volunteer at the Brookline Boulevard Food Pantry on the second Saturday of each month. You can also help anytime by bringing non-perishable food items to the collection box located in the drive-thru lobby.
If you would like to help with this ministry please contact Allyson McDermott at amcdermott@mlepc.org for more information.
Stephen Ministry
Stephen Ministers are commissioned lay persons who have been trained and are supervised to share Christ's healing love in a one-on-one confidential relationship with those facing a crisis or experiencing difficult times. To learn more about Stephen Ministries, CLICK HERE.
