Youth Families Can Help!


Did you know that every weekend in the winter, our church hosts persons who are without housing? This includes a free hot meal and we'll need your help! No cooking skills required! Bring the whole family as our youth help do what Jesus asked of us: FEED THE HUNGRY! This counts as volunteer hours for youth as well!
