CERA (Community Energy Relief Assistance)

We've partnered with Dollar Energy Fund, Peoples Customer Assistance (CAP) and others to help energy insecure elderly and other limited-income neighbors struggling to pay their household gas, electric, water, and wastewater bills. We can help you restore service, avoid shutoffs, non-payment utility terminations, and reduce energy burden.  Enrolling in CERA is fast and easy. Just call 412-661-1919.

If you are interested in supporting the CERA's efforts to assist our neighbors who are unable to meet the utility company's grant eligibility requirements, please consider making a monthly pledge. Your donation will help those who are struggling to make ends meet and ensure they can keep their utilities on.

Family Activities

We are committed to fostering strong family connections and combating social isolation for both families and older adults. We achieve this by organizing safe and engaging family activities.

We also extend our care to those who are no longer able to attend services by providing visits, communion, church mail, and home-cooked meals for individuals returning home from hospitals and nursing homes.

Your support is crucial in enabling us to continue these vital programs. If you would like to contribute to Family Activities and assist your neighbors in need, please consider making a monthly pledge at: Donate Now

Conflict Resolution

We understand the importance of conflict resolution and its role in achieving self-sufficiency.

Your support can make a significant difference in the lives of women, children and families needing bereavement care and counseling and to those who have experienced the loss of a loved one. Our goal is to offer support and guidance during these challenging times.

Additionally, we assist women, children, families, and older adults who are coping with trauma, overwhelming grief, or loss. We also offer premarital counseling for couples preparing for marriage.

If you feel led to support our mission and help provide counseling services to those in need, please consider making a monthly pledge through our "Donate Now" page.

Your generosity can make a significant difference in the lives of others.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you are interested in our services.

We operate by appointment only. You can reach us at 412-661-1919 to schedule an appointment.
