Vision & Ministry

In the Interest of Others is a local Central New York ministry that shares the love and grace of Christ Jesus within our community. We provide a pathway to meet physical needs and offer prayerful support for those within our reach. Though we come from different denominations and varied backgrounds, we are united by one powerful agreement: sharing the amazing love and grace of God brings us together to bless our community.

Sharon and the team are prayerfully looking to expand this life-giving ministry to Solvay and Camillus so more families can experience the tangible love of Jesus through food, clothing, counseling, and community connection.

Sharon’s work beautifully embodies Rev7’s heart for unity in Christ — practical compassion in action, all for the glory of God and the good of our neighbors in Syracuse and beyond.

Welcome to the Rev7 family, Sharon! We are grateful for your servant heart and excited to see how God continues to multiply this ministry through your leadership.
