Homeless people often go without the basic necessities most of us take for granted. In the struggle to find food and a safe place to sleep, they find it difficult to acquire basic items such as soap, shampoo, deodorant, and toothbrushes. Rarely do they receive the hygiene supplies necessary to maintain their health and confidence. Access to these basic personal supplies can give them a greater sense of self and a brighter outlook on life.

Every month that has a 5th Sunday, The Gathering Place offers the opportunity to worship through service in place of the regular 9:15AM Gathering. Everyone in our church and our community is invited to participate in these 5th Sunday worship experiences. (Our regular 10:30AM worship service will always take place as usual on these 5th Sundays.)

On Sunday, July 30, during our 9:15am Worship through Service in The Gathering Place we will construct personalized health kits for distribution to the homeless in our region through our Chosen 300 Team. Everyone is welcome to join in this effort. There will be tasks suitable for all ages. Please consider joining us in worshiping our God through service!

"In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven."
