SERVING THE COMMUNITY

Food Ministries

Clothing Ministries
 

The Clothing Closet is filled with donated new or gently used clothing. Donated clothing is provided by individuals, donations by corporate retail organizations, or through monetary donations with which needed items are purchased.

Bible Study Ministries
 

Bible study is essential to our Christian walk.   As we study God's Word, our personal relationship with God grows deeper and deeper.  It empowers us to live for the Lord in every aspect of our lives. This is what has inspired us to do a weakly Bible study.

Job Training/Placement

Resources that provide guidance in job searching, networking, and educational opportunities are crucial in today’s market.
