Chosen 300

Chosen 300

International and Global Missions

Chosen 300 is a 501c3 non-profit which brings people of different membership groups together; helping them to realize that despite our differences in our race, ethnic group, denomination, social class, economic classes, or the diverse ways we practice our faith; we can unify ourselves for the common good. The purpose of our unification is to distribute meals and services to the homeless throughout the Philadelphia Region and around the world.

Franconia Mennonite partners with Chosen 300 on the 3rd Tues of each month by serving at its Pottstown location. Chosen 300 also administers a monthly food distribution in Monrovia Liberia for unprivileged families, and provides advisement to the Liberia Task force in extending aid to schools and churches in Liberia.

Mennonite Central Committee

International and Global Missions

Mennonite Central Committee (MCC), a worldwide ministry of Anabaptist churches, shares God’s love and compassion for all in the name of Christ by responding to basic human needs and working for peace and justice. MCC envisions communities worldwide in right relationship with God, one another and creation.

We engage with MCC by:

  • Volunteering at the MCC Material Resources Center of Harleysville. The Material Resource Center of Harleysville’s mission is to support the global ministry of MCC by communicating both the need and the opportunities to give material resources to those suffering from poverty, oppression, natural disasters and war.
  • Assembling kits and sewing comforters. MCC sends these supplies around the world offering comfort to families facing disaster or crisis.
  • Donating grocery bags. Each year, MCC East Coast partners with Anabaptist churches in Pennsylvania and New York to distribute nearly 3,000 grocery-packed boxes through congregations’ local ministries.
  • Supporting Care & Share Thrift Shoppes, part of the MCC Thrift Network. MCC Thrift is an affordable and environmentally friendly way to support MCC’s ministries.
  • Participating in the Pennsylvania Relief Sale and My Coins Count collection, both generating funds for MCC. Each year, MCC relief sales offer a chance for fun while raising millions of dollars for MCC’s relief, development and peace work around the world.
  • Supporting the International Volunteer Exchange Program (IVEP), a yearlong work and cultural exchange opportunity for young, Christian adults emphasizing peacemaking and building understanding across cultures.
  • Serving with MCC, both in the U.S. and internationally as service workers and Serving And Learning Together (SALT) participants.
  • Giving to MCC’s “Where Needed Most” fund. Through this gift of hope, MCC is meeting urgent needs, helping to build peace and investing in long-term change in communities.
