Serving our Community

The ArtWalk

Farmers Market

Farmers Market

The ArtWalk is in collaboration with the Gloucester County School System to provide opportunities for child and youth to be celebrated for their artistic expression.  Twice a semester, artwork from local schools is selected by their art teachers and submitted to this public, outdoor exhibit.  In addition to the art, there are activities for children and performances by local groups.  

Farmers Market

Farmers Market

Farmers Market

Ware Church formed the Gloucester Farmers Market in 2023 to support local artisans, businesses, and the wider community.  More information can be found on the Market's page: www.glocofarmersmarket.com

The Ware Gardens

We currently have eight raised beds that are seasonally planted and tended by parishioners.  All of the produce harvested is given to the Bread of Life Food Bank in Gloucester.  In 2021, we will be tripling our garden space to include a field of potatoes and a fenced section for in-ground vegitables.

ComfortWare

Ware proudly provides hand-made robes to those receiving cancer treatment at Walter Reed Hospital in Gloucester.  You can pick up a pattern and material at the Church Offices anytime.  As these are completed, they are prayed over and given to patients.

During the March 2023 ArtWalk, inclement weather brought us inside. 

    Support Ministries

    Ware Water Well

    For over fifty years, the water well at Ware has provided the surrounding community from an artisanal well with fresh drinking water.  Community members will bring jugs, large and small, and take clean water home with them.  

    Jubilee Churches of Gloucester

    The Jubilee Churches of Gloucester is a coalition of Churches working together to provide assistance to Gloucester residents to prevent a housing crisis, support local non-profits and their work, and advocate for local policies that aid those in a housing crisis.

    AA and Al-Anon

    Ware Church hosts  weekly AA-related meetings. Sunday evening is time for an open meeting. There is also a support group for people working with family members who suffer from drug or alcohol addiction. 

    GUEST Shelter

     To donate to the GUEST shelter, please make a check payable to "GUEST" and mail to GUEST, PO Box 1544, Gloucester, VA, 23061 

    Special Projects

    School Clothing Drive

    School Clothing Drive

    This past August, members of Ware Church collected over $1300.00 to help provide clothing for local elementary school students.  This was in conjunction with our Week of Prayer for Gloucester County Schools.

    Christmas Angel Tree

    School Clothing Drive

    School Clothing Drive

    After Thanksgiving, a Angel Tree is set up in the Church Office, benefitting children of incarcerated persons -- thanks to a special relationship we have with the Department of Corrections.

    Scout Troop Support

    School Clothing Drive

    Scout Troop Support

    Ware is proud to support four Scouting groups: Troop 111, Troop 1651,  Crew 111, and Pack 175.  They can often be found camping on campus or meeting under the pavilion.
