We thank those who have been contributing to the Gilmanton Food Pantry! This is a Community out-reach program. We are blessed to serve over 22 Gilmanton families and anticipate that this number will increase in the next few months. In cooperation with the Gilmanton School we will be giving out a number of food baskets for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Please let us know if you would have a better holiday with a basket full of food! 364-7891. We estimate that about $1,000.00+ a month of food is being given out! We do have a freezer, kindly donated by the Supplemental Assistance Fund, and welcome donations of meat, frozen meals, and such, as well as canned and packaged food. We serve the Gilmanton Community confidentially and joyfully! We are blessed to be able to do so!


We invite you to worship with us! We love children, teens - people of all ages! We are a joyful church, full of Christ’s Spirit. As a house of prayer for all people we welcome seekers and believers from every background and Christian tradition. We understand ourselves to be in ministry together.
