Grace Presbyterian Church

444 Old York Road

Reading Buddies is a mentoring and reading program with our Urban/Suburban partner, Tenth Memorial Baptist Church. Volunteers from Grace read with at-risk children once a week on Thursday afternoons.

Cradle for the Christ Child is a Christmas tradition. Each year families at Grace have the opportunity to add a local child to their Christmas list and prayers. We receive names of children in need from the Jenkintown Day Nursery, school social workers, and the Presbyterian Children’s Village, and take gifts to them.

Laurel House is an emergency shelter for battered women and their children. We support Laurel House through gifts of food, clothing, and monetary donations. A “wish list” of ongoing needs is available. Although training in domestic violence support is necessary for most volunteers, we are hoping to expand our hands-on involvement with Laurel House in the coming year.
