Shoe Giveaway  
 
Thank you to Tonya Voepel and all of her amazing volunteers for the awesome outreach of shoes to more than 50 children. While at Contact Ministries, these children also received socks and hygiene items that they were in need of. We appreciate the partnership with Share the Spirit Foundation!!

Thank you to Hope Church for taking our Transitional Shelter Families on a bowling trip. While at King Pin they were treated to bowling, pizza and snacks! Our families do not get the opportunity to participate in such a fun outing very often so this was a huge blessing! Everyone had a blast!!
