We collect canned goods and other non-perishable items each month. Then,
9:45 on the second Saturday of each month, many of the youth and
adults from New Hope volunteer to help distribute that food to folks in need.
There is a world of difference between dropping canned goods into a basket at
church and making eye contact with a grateful mother who can now feed her
children. Our youth are living out their faith by being a blessing to others.
You should try it. Second Saturday of every month
Coins collected during the Sunday offerings in November through December will be donated to use for the local Emergency Warming Response (Warming Centers) effort. If you would like to donate more please mark the check or envelope with EWR.

We will be sharing our Love Your Neighbor, No Exceptions message. To emphasize that we will be handing out bookmarks that match our parking lot banners. School Snacks
In partnership with Harvest Ridge Elementary School, we are collecting ankle-length socks (white, black, gray, or colors), as well as athletic/sweat pants for boys and girls and leggings for girls. Sized for elementary-aged children, grades K-5, these can be new or gently used. They will be provided to the children, as needed.
School snacks: we are collecting snacks for Harvest Ridge students. You may pick up lists of peanut-free snacks and drop off your donations in the “Information and Outreach” area of the Narthex |

Blessed Stitches is a group of people who meet every third Monday in the church conference room from 10:00 a.m. until noon to knit and crochet.
We share a devotional, have a snack and fellowship while we create items with beautiful yarn. Our mission is to provide a comforting hug to church members in the form of prayer shawls. We also make hats and scarves to donate to those in need. We have been meeting for three years and in that time we have donated over 72 items to our coat closet, OASIS thrift shop, shawls to our church members, and hats for Operation Christmas Child. We would love to have you join us! If you knit or crochet and are unable to join us, but would like to donate a finished item, please speak to Shari Mahon or call her at 314-583-6964. If you would like to learn how to crochet, come and master the basics and explore a new hobby. |
