In addition to our focused efforts in LGBTQ justice, racial justice and Omaha Together One Community, we serve our community through donations, programming support and volunteering.

Share the Plate

Since 2011 we have donated half our offering each Sunday to a nonprofit changemaker. We call this Share the Plate!

We select a new, usually local organization every other month. During worship we learn about the recipient’s social justice program. Then at the end of two months, we award half the collected offering to the organization.

View our current and past Share the Plate recipients.

We accept nominations from church members via our Share the Plate Nomination Form.

Programming Support

We also look for opportunities to support organizations that provide quality programming to the community.

KIOS – We underwrite “All Things Considered,” a National Public Radio program aired on our local affiliate, KIOS.

River City Mixed Chorus (RCMC) – We sponsor ads in the programs of RCMC, Omaha’s volunteer chorus of gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender persons and their straight allies (GLBTA). RCMC is known for “creating exceptional musical experiences to support diversity, inspire change, and empower communities.”

Other Support

Habitat for Humanity – We have taken part in Habitat’s Faithful Builders projects to help build homes for refugee families. More about our involvement.

Holiday Support – This past December church members provided gifts, supplies and monetary donations to Lutheran Family Services – Afghan Refugee Aid, Siena Francis House, Metro Area Continuum of Care for the Homeless (MACCH), and Food Bank for the Heartland.
