Children's Church Needs Volunteers!

If you would be willing to help occasionally, please call the church office or talk to Stephanie Cavender.

Our Food Pantry always needs to be re-filled! We need canned soup, vegetables, packaged fruit, peanut butter, crackers, tuna – and food that doesn’t have to be cooked. We try to give enough food for 3 days, so that takes a lot for a family. Please pick up extra items when you shop and bring what you can to the church office. Thank you!
