Community Involvement

Canaan’s commitment to Godly stewardship extends beyond the congregation and walls of the church. We partner with a number of local service organizations and schools to help improve the lives of those in the surrounding community and beyond.

 

Family Life Center

Canaan Baptist Church and The Family Life Center (FLC) are separate entities but maintain a collaborative relationship.  Family Life Center is a non-faith-based 501(c)3 non-profit. The church provides tangible resources for FLC's community outreach programs in addition to Family Life's public donations. For more info, please visit the FLC website and/or headquarters located at 302 Schoolhouse Lane, Philadelphia, 19144 to sign up for valuable resources.  Nichelle Johnson, Executive Director.
