The Lord of Grace Outreach Team collected personal hygiene items for Butler’s Pantry to support our friends at Roadrunner Elementary during the month of April. Thank you so much for supporting this ongoing outreach in our community!
Several members of the congregation, Patty Clymer, Gail Nicewander, Darlene Paul, and Chris Kollen prepared a dinner for the Sister Jose Women’s Center Supper Club on Friday March 29, 2024. We prepared lasagna, salad, bread, and dessert. The women were very appreciative and loved the lasagna. It was a wonderful experience and we’re hoping to continue this service on a regular basis. Thank you!
