GIVING WITH A THANKFUL HEART

AT THANKSGIVING


Every year we partner with St. Michael's Preschool to assist our ministry partner, Faith Lettman, with Thanksgiving dinners for families that are in need. These range from older folks on fixed incomes to families that have experienced a loss of job or housing. We try to do whatever we can to help them find joy in this season.

 

We will be working together to provide holiday meals for 35 families.
