Winter Relief takes place February 9-16 as we offer shelter and hospitality to 30-35 unhoused guests. All week long, we’ll be sharing the love of Christ in tangible ways. Please pray for our guests and all our volunteers. We still need day & night hosts on both Saturday and Sunday and some additional/back-up overnight hosts throughout the week. Questions: contact Carolyn Heim. Sign up online to be part of this important, joyful ministry of compassion and dignity.
