An Opportunity to Help Others -
Simple Gesture, a Food/Grocery Drive for the Hunger & Health Coalition, continues through the winter. One in four children in the High Country are hungry. Along with other churches in the area, we have a simple way to meet this immediate need. Green recyclable grocery bags are available in the Welcome Center of Skiles Hall (to the right of the Living Room). Simply fill the bag(s) with the items listed on a sheet in each bag and return it to the Welcome Center on the date listed.
Many thanks!
Men’s Night Out!
Men’s Night Out - an in-person, socially distanced opportunity for men within the parish and throughout the community to enjoy having an evening together - is taking a "Winter Break."
Watch for announcements about our return in April, 2021.
