Presbyterian Women and the Men's Ministry are creating goodie bags for the Presbyterian Night Shelter! We are asking the men of the church to contribute by donating protein bars or small 8 oz. water bottles to the church by April 24. Our goal is to collect 500 of each item. Items may be dropped off on Sundays at the welcome desk, or in Miguel Carlin's office during the week.

We look forward to coming together with friends to make a difference for those in need! Register for the packing party by April 24.
