Children & Youth Ministry Outreach
School is back in session and our family outreach program is in full swing. We assist twelve families at PS 195 and PS 38Q with groceries each week. Your help is needed to keep our pantry stocked. These items are needed: cereal, soup, rice, pasta, canned milk, canned fruit, canned vegetables, and canned meat items (tuna or chicken). Please consider making a donation to this vital program. Donations can be brought on Sundays during the 10:00am worship.
