GapPack is up and running for the new school year! Your support is essential to maintaining this ministry, in which we provide weekend snacks and meal items to food insecure students at our neighboring Resnik Community Learning Center. You can bring individually packaged food items (applesauce, mac and cheese, granola bars, oatmeal packets, etc.) to church or donate money to support the mission.
We support Family Promise
We continue our support of this vital ministry that provides housing and social services to families that do not have secure housing situations, but are working towards maintaining stable housing. We are now collecting towels (new, please) for bath and kitchen. You may place your donations in the basket between the sanctuary and parlor areas. We will deliver them to Family Promise at the end of the month.
