Mission & Justice

Putting Compassion Into Action.

“Life’s most persistent and urgent question is: ‘What are your doing for others?’”

The purpose of the Mission & Justice Committee of First Presbyterian Church of Clarks Summit is to provide church and community members with the opportunity to serve as Christ’s disciples. Following Christ’s teaching, we seek to minister to those in greatest need, seeking equality, challenging injustice and working towards a world of peace.

Where Mission Meets Meaningful Action



Financial and Service Support

Guided by our denomination’s Office of Presbyterian Missions we support a variety of local, national, and even international organizations working on issues of mission and justice. Some of those we support are listed below. We also promote the four PC (USA) “Special Offerings” across each year, most of which support mission and justice work, and organize educational experiences (classes, table-talks, visual displays, print pieces, etc.) to inform and inspire our congregation.
