Ways to Connect in the Community

This program is simple. but necessary and very rewarding.  We are taking wonderful food to our local food pantires for those in need.  We need a few more partitipants during the holidays and for next year.  We pick up food at the Starbucks on Crooks on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, and deliver the food to one of the local food pantries.   If  you would like to join the "crew" contact Pastor Myra.
