Migrant Ministry Christmas Program

Christmas for Migrant Families

Chester County Migrant Ministry is a year round program aimed at meeting the physical and spiritual needs of immigrant workers in our area. Since the 1980’s they have served families who come primarily from Mexico, Guatemala, and other Latin American countries to work in the mushroom farms and other local industries. These families are often coping with a new country, language, and cold winters. The ministry provides English and citizenship classes, translation services for medical and legal appointments, as well as warm coats and caps, blankets and beds.

There is a special need for support at Christmas. Many families are not paid enough to cover more than their basic needs. We can make a difference in the lives of these families by providing Christmas gifts. If you participate, you'll be given information to purchase a gift card so that parents can choose gifts for their children and spouses.

If you would like to sponsor a family or individual, or make a  financial donation, please email Nancy Haughton at nancy.k.haughton@gmail.com with any questions.
