Who are we? At Immanuel Ministries, we are just Real People with Real Lives Loving a Real God. We believe the Love of Jesus Christ transforms lives.
Our Mission at Immanuel Ministries is to share the Love of Jesus. We accomplish this through meeting specific spiritual, physical and emotional needs in the community.
We currently offer: The Community center, Coffee Hour, The Biker Blessing, The Java Village Blessing Box food pantry, Sunday Church Services, Bible Studies, prayer groups and pastoral support.
Affiliation: Immanuel Ministries is Non-Denominational but we are affiliated and accountable to Elim Fellowship of Lima NY.
Our History: Immanuel Ministries was officially launched in the area Sept. 2012, connecting with the community and building relationships by meeting in individual homes for Bible studies and Life groups. In December of 2012 we began having public worship meetings twice a month in a leased location at 4530 Main St. (Rte. 78) Java Village. On Sunday March 3rd 2013, Immanuel Ministries started having regular weekly Sunday Services at that location. In 2020, Immanuel Ministries expanded their service to the Community by starting the Blessing Box 24hr. Emergency Food Pantry and by opening up our Building to be used as a Community Center with Open Community use for the public.
