JMeg Ministries seeks to share the love of Jesus through the ministries of service and missions. Founded in November 2012, JMeg is the result of God’s call on Dave and Dottie Jones. Seeking to take the church outside its walls, and reach out to “the least of these”, Dave and Dottie have stepped out in faith to share the love of Jesus.
Serving Our Community’s Physical Needs
At JMeg, we know that some needs are urgent, and it can be difficult to know where to turn when an emergency arises. We are here to help during those times. Jeremiah’s Closet exists to meet your needs. Jeremiah’s Closet focuses on clothing. However, assistance in providing other items such as shoes, personal hygiene items, infant supplies, household items, furniture, school supplies, and food may be available. JMeg may also assist in referring to other agencies.
Serving Our Community’s Spiritual And Emotional Needs.
At JMeg, we believe that meeting your emotional and spiritual needs is just as important as meeting your physical needs, so in times of crisis, we are here to help with free counseling services through J29LPS.

DIG Furniture is now located in Milton. DIG was founded in early 2020 from an observed need in rural, central Pennsylvania. We are inspired and mentored by a nationwide network of furniture banks. The concept is much like a food bank, but only for furniture and household goods. While each furniture bank is different, we all have one thing in common: we believe that there is enough for everybody. Click on the ICON for more information on their website or call. 570-658-9880
