"I hope the Hub can see how absolutely
incredible the growth has been in such a short time!...The work you all are willing to do, and are doing, keeps us so encouraged...not to mention all the ‘boots on the ground’ help you’re providing people with. I cannot thank you enough for continuing to press forward and broaden the circle with the goal of closing gaps for those in our community."

Executive Director Transition
After six years of dreaming, planning, launching, and carrying a vision, our Executive Director, Steve Jeffrey, will be transitioning from his role with the Warwick Community Hub at the end of June 2026.
The Warwick Community Hub exists today because of the stewardship of a vision God placed on the hearts of several Lititz churches and leaders years ago - a vison Steve carried forward – aimed at working together to practically help our neighbors living in the Lititz/Warwick community by connecting families in difficult situations to available resources, empowering next steps, and restoring hope because of Jesus. What started as an idea has become a growing network of relationships, partnerships, programs, and care throughout the Warwick community. We are deeply grateful for Steve’s willingness to say “yes” to something bigger than himself.
As we step into this transition, we do so with confidence that God is still leading the story of the Hub and that the mission remains strong!
Warwick Hub Team
The Story of the
Warwick Community Hub
The Warwick Community Hub began as a vision of eight community members looking to break down the barriers between people seeking resources and the committed organizations working to serve them. In early 2020, this team connected with community influencers such as our Warwick School District, our law enforcement community, social workers, non-profit leaders, church leaders, and others. We also set out to learn more about similar "Hub" ministries in other communities such as New Holland (CrossNet), Denver/Ephrata (Real Life), Paradise (The Factory), Elizabethtown (ECHOs), and Quarryville (Solanco Neighborhood Ministries).
​
After this initial research, we believed that our Warwick Community was ready for a next step. The Hub is the result of these amazing organizations and their willingness to share information and their experience with us. Our mission is to work together to practically help our neighbors living in the Lititz/Warwick community by connecting families in difficult situations to available resources, empowering next steps, and restoring hope because of Jesus.
​
Launching in 2023, the Hub is now led by a committed Board of Directors while day to day operations are led by a four-person team. Our "why" comes from the importance of caring for our community in practical ways as modeled by the life of Jesus. This motivates us to be consistently kind, loving, transparent, and hopeful in each interaction with our neighbors here in Warwick.
