Local Mission Work
God’s word tells us that being a Christian steward means that we have both the privilege and the responsibility of managing all of life and life’s resources for God’s purposes. God provides for us so that we may be able to help our neighbors when they are in need.

Caring Hands Outreach Center
Christ the King specifically supports the Caring Hands Outreach Center serving the Southeast Polk area. Through their Food Pantry and Clothes Hanger, assistance is given to those in need. Members volunteer at the center and food stuffs are gathered for distribution on Food Pantry Sundays. The second Sunday of each month is Food Pantry Sunday at Christ the King (although we will not turn away a donation on a different Sunday). We collect and transport all foods collected to the Caring Hands Food Pantry in Altoona.
Christ the King Garden
In Spring 2025, we broke ground on our food pantry donation garden for Caring Hands. Thanks to our dedicated volunteers, we contributed a whopping 1,290lbs of fresh produce to Caring Hands Outreach, sharing fellowship and making light work.
