We are excited to introduce this special food distribution every other month. We generally serve over 125 families each time and offer non-perishable items in support of these local households. This is a free service our church offers our neighbors. Call the office and ask for more information and see the Church Calendar page for upcoming dates.
Calling all Pack Rats!
Did you know that your church can use a lot of those things that you just can’t seem to throw away? Take a look at the list of items that we or other area agencies are collecting. (Save this list and put it on your fridge for future reference!)
Coupons—We send these overseas to our military families. The PX will accept these coupons up to 6 months past their expiration dates!
