A NIGHT AT THE OSCARS...
This year our Prom 2017 was a huge success!! We were blessed by the support we received which allows for the continuation of our Emergency Shelter programs. The emergency shelter houses women and children of all ages in Springfield and the surrounding community who would otherwise have nowhere to sleep. This also allows families to stay together. What an enormous impact you have helped make in these lives by allowing us to continue showing the love of Christ!! Thank you to all of our generous attendees for their contribution to the evening.

We also send a huge Thank you to our generous sponsors whose prayers and support make it possible for Contact Ministries to continue meeting our mission and vision of impacting lives for Christ.

Prom Auction
Once again this year our donors contributed items to the Contact Ministries Prom 2017 to be auctioned off during the event. These items were incredibly generous gifts that helped to bring much needed funding to support the work at Contact Ministries.





Thank you to everyone who so graciously donated items for the auction and silent auction. Your contribution helped it to be an outstanding year!!

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!!
 

Ladies, would you consider becoming a volunteer at Contact Ministries?

We are in need of childcare, basement boutique and front desk volunteers.

Childcare helpers are needed in the mornings beginning at 9:00 am. There are several days a week available. You will get to enjoy the love and laughter of the children that call our transitional shelter home.

Basement boutique volunteers are needed on Wednesdays to help our walk-in clients with shopping. Friday volunteers help our staff and shelter moms sort donations and organize the boutique. Both begin at about 9:00 am.

The front desk volunteer helps by sitting with a paid staff member to welcome our clients and process their intake information. We currently need front desk help on Tuesdays and Wednesdays beginning at 9:00 am both days.

Thank you for prayerfully considering filling one or more of these open positions. Please follow the link below to fill out the application if you are interested.
