Community Services
Our congregation hosted the Howard County Cold Weather Shelter November 21 to November 27, 2011. This program operated by Grassroots Crisis Intervention Center, with assistance by our congregation's volunteers, provided individuals with three meals and a place to sleep each day. A big thanks for all the generous assistance provided. Although the Community Services ministry is the primary ministry to our community, numerous other ministries also serve our community.
