Feeding the Hungry

Each year our congregation donates hundreds of pounds of food and household supplies that are distributed through the Irondequoit Community Cupboard and the Community Food Cupboard of Rochester. These food cupboards serve the town of Irondequoit and our city of Rochester neighbors. 

On Mondays, a IUCC members help prepare lunch at Salem Nutrition Center, located at Salem UCC in downtown Rochester.

Caring Connection

A major lay ministry of Irondequoit UCC. The purpose of the Caring Connection Team is to ensure that any member of the congregation who is in need receives appropriate and compassionate support, visits, and care from the other members of the congregation.  We respond to situations of bereavement, illness, isolation, hospitalization, new baby, or any other life event.  The intent is to respond to persons’ needs directly, or by referring them to others, offering support during circumstances of need, whether joyous or solemn.

Other Mission Activities

Each year, IUCC donates school supplies and backpacks to support back-to-school needs.

At Christmas, our congregation donates gifts for families served by local food cupboards and make a financial donation to UCC fund that helps the care of retired ministers.
