Sojourner Truth Ministries receives AllOne Charities grant to assist with providing social services for patrons of integrated feeding program in the community soup kitchen.
Sojourner Truth Ministries, Inc. is an integrated soup kitchen located at 501 High St, Williamsport, providing meals and limited social services, faith-building and other intentional activities to help many who are struggling in the community.
Last year nearly 30,000 meals were served in addition to perishable food giveaways during the week. This offered numerous opportunities to connect in meaningful ways with patrons to include warm handoffs to local agencies, emotional and spiritual support.
With the small staff being stretched to capacity, the AllOne Charities grant is enabling several hours of social service to be offered per week with a newly created position, as well as some training for staff and core volunteers, thus enhancing the program as a whole.
AllOne Charities is a nonprofit organization who funds local and regional non-profit organizations whose initiatives help to address some of the region's most pressing health challenges.

Sojourner Truth Ministries shall be a loving, spiritual, and inclusive Christian mission.
Sojourner Truth Ministries loves all people, creates community, builds character, and equips us to be faithful disciples of Jesus Christ.
At Sojourner Truth Ministries, our goal is to provide a place where God's love may be experienced. Our doors are open to all as we minister to those who are broken, whether that brokenness is financial, physical, emotional, spiritual, relational, or any other type of brokenness.
Sojourner Truth Ministries seeks to be a place of safety and healing through the grace, healing, and mercy of Jesus Christ.
Sojourner Truth Ministries actively seeks volunteers who know the peace of Christ and are able to share that peace with those who are troubled, anxious, alienated, and disenfranchised.
Your support and contributions will enable us to meet our goals and improve conditions. Your generous donation will fund our mission.
Twenty years ago, a group of Methodist clergy and laity felt a burden for Williamsport. They spent time walking around the city praying and it was during that time that one of the group members had a dream of a wheel with a central hub with spokes radiating from it.
"The center of that dream was Sojourner Truth Ministry and all the radios were different churches in the area."
The ministers envisioned that the ministry would be set up in such a way that churches would not have to have small ministries, but instead could connect and be connected to what was already happening here. It's very nice to see that materialize in a different way, because now we have different types of denominations. They are not strictly Methodists and we are crossing these bridges with them. When we started out, we started out by visiting the porches and doing small groups on the porches. They then offered this building when the church closed. We bought it for $ 1.00 and groups have come. Over the years, various groups have met at the facility and they continue to meet.
Open today | 09:00 am – 01:00 pm |
Sojourner Truth loves all persons so feel free to drop-in.
