We sponsor Boy Scout troops and Girl Scout troops.

We are the home of the Merry-Go-Round Nursery School.

We give presents at Christmas to the residents at the Medford Family Life Education Center at 2 Central Avenue, which is operated by HeadingHome, Inc. (formerly Shelter, Inc.) .

We participate in sing-alongs at the Buddy Coholan Center on Washington Street in Medford, designed specifically for individuals diagnosed with dementia, Alzheimer's or other irreversible memory disorders.

We collect food for the Community Cupboard Food Pantry.

We make afghans and blankets for Project Linus.

Several 12-step groups use our facilities for their meetings.

We join others in the Medford Council of Churches and the Church Women United of Malden-Medford-Melrose.
