About Us
Inter-Church Ministries of Erie County is a network of local churches working together to support neighbors in need.
Our Vision
A beloved community in Erie County where churches, together with interfaith and community partners, walk in solidarity with the poor and marginalized, heal divisions, and work for peace, dignity, and the common good.
Our Mission
Inter-Church Ministries of Erie County is an ecumenical network of congregations committed to a living, public faith. We unite churches in worship, learning, and shared action, and we mobilize people and resources to serve our neighbors, advance justice, and care for our common home, especially alongside those most affected by poverty, racism, violence, and exclusion.
