WEEKLY BULLETIN
Common Ground
We’re so excited to launch Common Ground, our brand-new marriage enrichment ministry! This is a relaxed, once-a-month gathering where couples can enjoy dinner, a short video, great conversations, and time for prayer. Whether you’ve been married for months or decades, this is for you! And yes — we’ve got kids programming covered from infants through 6th grade. Our first meeting will be on Friday March 13th from 6:30-8:30pm. Be sure to sign up today using this link in the bulletin or at the table outside by March 8th, especially if you’ll need kids programming. We’d love to see you there!

Storehouse Food Pantry
The Storehouse Ministry is dedicated to people in need of food assistance. We are a partner agency with Second Harvest Food Bank. Through them, we receive a variety of donations which include bread/pastries, frozen meats, fresh produce and more. We seldom receive dry goods and pantry items. This is where YOU CAN HELP..
We are in the process of redesigning our distribution to allow our guests more independence in choosing the foods that they want. To make this happen, a full pantry is needed at all times. We are looking for a steady flow of dry goods/pantry items. Dry beans/rice, cereal, canned vegs, soups/soup mixes, peanut butter, pasta etc. are needed.
With recent changes to the laws, more local people are expected to become food insecure. If you are blessed and able to help provide food to our community, please consider donating. If you prefer, you can see some sample recipes here and shop for the ingredients for our guests to prepare at home. Simple and fun.
"For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in" Matthew 23:35
One Night Wednesdays
One Night Wednesdays is back! Kids, youth, and adults are all back to meeting starting Wednesday, January 7th from 6:30-8:00pm. See you then!
