All-Church Mission Sunday & Thanksgiving Food Drive

As part of our 90th Anniversary celebration, we are excited to combine our annual Thanksgiving Food Drive with our All-Church Mission Sunday on November 15, 2026. Join us in the High Court at 9:45 a.m. for a special morning dedicated to fellowship, gratitude, and giving back to the community that has supported us for nearly a century.


To honor our 90th year, our goal is to donate 90 fully stocked bags of groceries and 90 manual can openers. We are collecting the most-needed pantry and household items listed below. Please bring your filled bags of groceries to the church on Sunday, November 15, where they will be blessed during the morning's worship service.

  • Hearty Soups
  • Dry Pasta & Pasta Sauce
  • Canned Fruits & Vegetables
  • Peanut Butter
  • Canned Tuna or Chicken
  • Boxed Dry Cereal
  • Granola Bars
  • Toilet Paper & Bar Soap
  • Diapers (sizes 5 & 6)


Then, roll up your sleeves and participate in our hands-on service projects that include packaging beans and rice for the Christian Community Service Center (CCSC) and decorating brown paper bags for Kids’ Meals.


Let’s share our harvest and make this anniversary milestone our most impactful season of giving yet!
