LOCAL OUTREACH—
Local Outreach
We are intentional about meeting the spiritual needs of our actual neighbors and people in our surrounding community. Following Jesus’ instructions, we provide food, clothing and resources to those with great needs; we also partner with a variety of organizations who serve the marginalized in our community.
Food Distribution
If you are in need of food, please come to our church office Monday to Thursday, between 9:00am and 3:00pm. Likewise, if you would like to donate food, please bring it to the church office during the week between 9:00am and 3:00pm or to the Connect Wall on Sunday mornings. Please know that we cannot accept open items or hand packaged foods, and at this time we cannot accept donations that require refrigeration.
We are always in need of many shelf-stable foods and at this time the following items are highly requested:
- Canned Proteins
- Personal Care Items
Please check the expiration dates on your donations to ensure they are not expired or soon to be expired. Your generosity is admirable and we are grateful for your partnership.
Clothes Closet
If you are in need of clothing, please come to our church office Monday through Thursday between 9:00am and 3:00pm. Likewise, if you would like to donate clothing, please bring items to the church office during the week between 9:00am and 3:00pm or to the Connect Wall on Sunday mornings.
Please ensure that all donated clothing is clean, gently used, and in good condition. At this time, we are unable to accept damaged, heavily worn, or unwashed items. For hygiene and storage reasons, we also cannot accept undergarments unless they are new and in unopened packaging.
We are always in need of clothing donations and at this time the following items are highly requested:
- Unopened/New Socks and Underwear
- Unopened/New Bras + Sports Bras

Please consider seasonal needs when donating, and choose items that are appropriate for the current weather and reflect modern, on-trend styles. Your generosity makes a meaningful difference, and we are truly grateful for your support.
