We serve the area from North East to the Susquehanna River (Western Cecil County).  Our goal is to help people find the way to change their lives so that they don't need our help anymore.  This includes assisting them in finding a good-paying job, learning how to budget their money, and connecting them with other services and agencies that will help them succeed.

At the same time, we support these families during their transition.  Our free Food Pantry gives supplemental food to allow them to use their resources for other expenses.  We also provide clothing and furniture when needed.

Our Food Pantry has many customers who will always require assistance because their incomes are inadequate for their needs;  these include the elderly, disabled, and others attempting to survive on fixed incomes.

In the midst of all of this, Ray of Hope Mission Center is still called upon to respond to emergencies in our community.   We assist families who have lost everything in fires or natural disasters and we assist victims of domestic violence to get to safety.

Through the gracious support of our member churches, we are able to act as God's Hands on earth.
