Outreach Committee Update

Tis the season for Outreach projects! Thank you for your support of our Thanksgiving meal project which we’ve reinvented this year by collaborating with Ripe for Revival and our friends at St. Andrews.

We are excited to launch this year's Christmas Stars project and ask the help of all members! Please join us in fulfilling Christmas wishes for children from area families in need. Please check out the list of children here and sign up online or by taking a star from the display in the narthex this Sunday. Gifts should be purchased and dropped off in the church parlor by Sunday, December 10. If you are unable to shop, but want to sponsor a child, please let us know and we will do the shopping for you.

This meaningful project is an opportunity for parishioners of all ages to share Christ's love in this special time of year - thank you for helping make the season bright!
