Needs
Food Pantry
SGT’s Food Pantry is a ministry that shares the love of God by actively responding to both the physical and spiritual needs within the community. It provides food staples for individuals and families that are in need. Every individual that utilizes this ministry is greeted with God’s love and care and is ministered to with prayer. Food Pantry items are received from Long Island Cares, Shoprite Supermarket, and donations from the SGT church family.
Drop-off bins for the Food Pantry are inside the church's side door. Your continued support to help is a blessing for all.
Food Pantry Appointments: Visits to the Food Pantry are by appointment only. To make an appointment, call 631-256-7954.
Recovery and Self-Care
As a church, we believe that God has equipped us with resources for those who are experiencing difficult seasons such as grief, divorce, and overcoming addiction. Some resources we provide include:
Ancient Paths
The Ancient Paths is the original 16-hour Ancient Paths Experience. The teaching includes solid principles and moving examples that open the heart for ministry to receive healing from a cursed identity. The intent of the teaching is not just for information, but to expose hidden areas of woundedness that have occurred in the family of origin or through other significant relationships. Topics in this original seminar include some of the same as in the newer Empowering Relationships and the Blessing Generations seminars. Their next class will be Overcoming Anger on Saturday, September 16th from 8:30am-6pm. Their focus is to identify the anger cycle, sources of anger/frustration, & share steps to overcome anger. This class is $60, and you can sign up by clicking the link below.
GriefShare
A thirteen-week video/discussion course specifically tailored for those mourning the loss of a loved one or any loss in their lives. For more information, see www.griefshare.org.
