Mission/Service
From Long Island to the World
The Presbyterian Church of Sweet Hollow nestled in the woods should be considered The Little Church with a Big Heart. We engage regularly with mission activities to help others locally and beyond our borders. Each month there is a focus for specific groups in need and to the changes in adapting to daily life. Our Mission Team invites our congregation members and their friends to participate in whatever capacity they can to help others in need. Below is our 2023 vision for giving. We always welcome your input to expand our outreach in the spirit of Matthew 25:35 - " for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me."
