Recent Projects
These are some recent special mission projects of our church
Warm Clothing donation – On Missions Sunday, five large bags of warm clothing (socks, hats, gloves, scarves, sweaters, etc.) were donated for our Native American neighbors at the Standing Rock Reservation in North Dakota.
Bread for the World– The church participated in an “offering of letters” in which many members of the congregation wrote to Congress about funding hunger projects around the world. If you did not have a chance to stop by the letter writing table, please go to the Bread for the World Website and click the “How can I Help” Tab.
