How We Serve
Food Pantry
We donate to the food pantry because we believe in supporting our neighbors and making sure no one goes hungry. It’s about us all chipping in to help out where we can, making a real difference in our community’s day-to-day lives.
Fall Supper
Our Fall Supper is more than just a meal; it’s a time when we all come together to catch up, share stories, and enjoy good food. It’s one of the ways we build a stronger, more connected community.
VBS
Every summer, our Vacation Bible School gives kids a fun place to hang out, make new friends, and learn about God in a way that’s exciting for them. It’s a great way for kids in our community to grow in faith and confidence.
 Backpack Program
Through our Backpack Program, we send kids from our local school district home with bags of food so that they don’t go hungry on the weekends.
