Armstrong Garden Ministry for IPM
Share the bounty of your garden with neighbors in need.
 

For the second year, Maureen Smith has lovingly planted a vegetable garden in the Preschool's fenced area behind the church to help support our mission partner, Inter Parish Ministry (IPM).

If your home garden produces more than you can use, we invite you to share your harvest with neighbors in need. Simply bring your fresh fruits or vegetables to church on Sunday and place them in the IPM donation box located between the Atrium doors.

Each Monday, we deliver the fresh produce, along with all other donated items, to IPM, helping provide healthy, nourishing food to families throughout our community.

Together, we can grow hope, share God's abundance, and make a meaningful difference—one harvest at a time.

WOW God!

A Prayer Shawl and Creative Ministry 

Meets every Third Tuesday morning, from 10:30 am -12:00 pm

Everyone is Welcome!

Approximately 100 handmade items were distributed to individuals and non-profits each year! 

We hope you will gather for our regular monthly meeting on the Third Tuesday morning, from 10:30 am -12:00 pm (noon) on location close to the church, contact the office for more information on the location.  Everyone is welcome to enjoy the fellowship that comes from making a small difference in the lives of those who might benefit from a handmade item on their journey to wholeness. We will be working on prayer shawls, lap blankets, stuffed animals, etc.  You do not need to know how to knit, crochet, or sew to participate. There will be many options to help such as creating tags, bagging, and sorting. The fellowship will be as important as the mission work and we hope you will come and be a part of something special! Bring a friend!

We want to extend a huge thank you to the Hands & Hearts Ministry for their incredible work! Their dedication to making Teddy Bears for the families of Interfaith Hospitality Network (IHN) is truly a blessing. These adorable bears bring comfort and joy to those who need it most, and it's all thanks to the time and effort of the Hands & Hearts Ministry team.

Their selfless act of kindness is a wonderful reminder of God's love and care for us. It's amazing to see how a simple gesture can bring so much happiness to a family in need. We're grateful for this and their commitment to serving others. May their good work continue to inspire and uplift our community!
