Our ongoing programs:
We collect for the Food Bank on the first Sunday of every month. This is called the “Retiring Offering” since people donate as they leave or “retire” from the sanctuary. Donations are kept until the end of the year when they can be matched by a corporate and/or local donor. We collect clothing for the Food Bank Clothing Depot. We provide pick-up service for CHEP food boxes.
