OUR BEGINNINGS
The Outreach had its beginnings in 1970 following a lay renewal at First Presbyterian Church. A Bible Study Group rented a small house in the East Florence area where Sunday afternoon meetings were held. Gradually, neighborhood children started to come and soon became regular in attendance. The number of participants became so large that we began meeting at First Presbyterian Church, then at Trinity Presbyterian Church for a short time. In May 1987 we moved into our present building at 320 National Cemetery Road.

Our Purpose
Faithful People
The PEK Foundation and East Florence Mission were started by Frank and Peggy Key to meet the needs of children in the neighborhoods of East Florence. The primary goal is to introduce these underserved children to the Gospel of Jesus Christ by forming relationships through fellowship. Food, recreation, and Bible study are all tools used to form lasting mentoring relationships with the children. Homework help and tutoring are also services provided at the East Florence Mission.
