Community - In January 2026 the parishioner's of St Christopher's Church responded to a request by the Prince George's Police Department to provide fresh chickens to local families. The effort was coordinated by our Deacon. In 2025 the parishioners also donated warm socks, hats and gloves to Prince George's County police in response to a drive to provide them to the area needy families.
On Monday, December 22, 2025, St. Christopher's parishioners donated 21 whole fresh chickens to the City of New Carrollton, to be distributed by police officers, in the City's Cops with Chickens project.

Community Café
Community Café was held at: First United Methodist Church, 5201 Belcrest Road, Hyattsville, Maryland. At St. Christopher's, we have had the privilege of participating in this ministry for over 21 years. On the fourth Wednesday of the months of January, March, May, July, September and November members of St. Christopher's served lunch to approximately 75 - 100 guests who were in need. Personal care packages were also donated and distributed by members of St. Christopher's. This ministry was halted due to the pandemic as we were unable to physically serve meals however, we continue to support this ministry by providing two local grocery gift cards to the needy families.
It is a joy to be able to help others in need and we thank the Lord for His grace and favor in enabling us to continue to serve.
