Community Ministry

Welcome

We thank faith leaders, community members, educators, government officials, and

caring individuals for your prayers, partnership, and support for the Community

Ministry of Prince George’s County’s (CMPGC) over 50 years of service performing our

community-focused mission.

Community Ministry is an interfaith, 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization committed to

helping address human service needs, close the educational achievement gap, and

reduce health inequities in various communities.

CMPGC provides food assistance, housing referrals, health care support, and other

supportive services. With today’s tough economic conditions, many in our community

need these services to help them “make ends meet”.

This website serves as a resource to help those in need in our neighborhoods and

community. Therefore, we invite you to engage with the programs and activities posted

on the website.

It is our prayer that our organization and ministry will impact your life in some positive

way and that you are inspired to join us as we seek to provide an uplifting hand to

those in need in our community.


Jimmie L. Slade, Executive Director
