Mission Outreach Committee
The purpose of the mission outreach committee is to reach out into the community to help and serve those in need and to support our district and conference missions
the first Sunday of every month, the committee provides a breakfast with a free will donation to support a specified mission for each month
All year a basket is provided in the back of the church for non-perishable grocery donations; to be delivered monthly to Jamison center.
In June , because the Jamison center pantry is very low, the committee sponsors a "fill the pew" campaign for the purpose of filling a pew with non-perishable grocery items. All groceries are delivered to Jamison center for their pantry. In November, the committee provides a "Charlie Brown Tree" to collect hats, scarfs, gloves, socks and new children's books. All donations are given to Jamison center
The Outreach Committee is supported 100% by love donations and 100% of the donations go to donations.
