Rotterdam Community Center A place where neighbors of all backgrounds can gather without fear to support, learn & grow together.

The “three legs” of our open table, all crosscut by a focus on diversity, equity and inclusion, are:

1) food security
2) mental health & wellbeing
3) arts, culture & self expression

Formed by the historic 2021 consolidation of the former Trinity Reformed Church into Messiah Lutheran, Trinity's former church space is now a resource for everyone in our community, no matter their religious affiliation! We host a wide variety of regular weekly offerings from Movie Night to 12 Step Programs, Community Crafters to Zumba, Board Game Night and Yoga. The Rotterdam Community Center also houses our Bread of Life Food Pantry and Produce Pantry programs. We also regularly host community concerts and other one-time arts and culture events, all which can be found on the 'events' tab of our page.

We here at the RCC couldn't do what we do without all our wonderful Volunteers. If you've been wanting to get involved, stop by Saturday and see what types of opportunities we have to offer!

Today was a momentous occasion! We must offer a huge thank you to Charles and Arlene Woodruff for their amazing generosity. After seeing the press about the launch of our mobile pantry, and the need for a Van of the RCC’s own, they answered the call!

Today they officially handed over the keys and title to the RCC’s new cargo van! Truly a blessing we plan to use for years to come!
