Grow in Service & Witness
Family Promise
Our church participates as a host congregation for Family Promise by
housing and feeding up to four families for a week at a time, once
every three months. While in the program, the families work with the
staff of Family Promise to gain job, parenting, and money management
skills that will enable them to transition from homeless to independant
living.

opportunities announced throughout the year.
