Outreach Committee – Cash for Cans

Home

Outreach Committee wants to mention that it has restocked Cash for Cans envelopes. While our pantries are legally obligated to NOT buy hygiene items like soaps and tissues and cleaners, they purchase food from Second Harvest Food Banks and are able to buy 7 pounds for a dollar, 14 cents a pound! All donations are welcome but Outreach wants to reemphasize just how powerful monetary donations are.

Sanctuary Improvements

Home

The Sanctuary Improvements are almost all done. All that is left is a monitor TV for the back sanctuary wall, a monitor TV for the Northex overflow, and the connectors to make the TVs in the Sanctuary, the Narthex, and the Lounge show what is being broadcast live. The cost to finish the project is $5000. If you wish to help see this project through talk to Pastor, Eric Neff, or simply drop off some money. Thanks to the previous generosity we have a high quality presentation which we share with shut-ins, Snowbirds, travelers, and church seekers.
