Community Outreach Donation Drive

A beautiful thing we love about Jesus is his way of loving those in deep need, healing, empowering and restoring them to community. This is the kind of work we pursue as we reach out in our community.

This month we’re getting ready for our winter community outreach program: providing Basic Needs Care Packs to those in need.

This year is going to be different from previous years with the food bank and grocery hampers. We’ve heard from our community and we want to empower them as much as we’re able to as we give. This year we will be providing select gift cards and personal and baby care items.

Will you help?

Through November, each week we’re focusing on a few items needed (see below). Monetary donations are always welcome and can be given here.

Donations can be delivered to the church weekdays Mon-Tues 9am-9pm; Wed-Fri 9am-5pm; or at worship on Sundays. (Mail and delivery services are great if products are ordered online)
