One of the Graceworks community ministries is the Police Hospitality ministry. For those reading this article and were not aware, the Chattanooga Police have access to the GW building 24 hours a day. We make the building available for restroom and kitchen use. Providing a location of privacy for mealtime or bookkeeping is important to our community servants. The officers pay nothing for this ministry, and Graceworks expects nothing in return. It is a ministry. Another element of this ministry is providing snacks. Each year GW budgets money to purchase water and snacks for the officers to pick up on their way out the door. Each month there is a budget of $100. As you well know, $100 does not go very far when purchasing snacks. As of this newsletter, we have used up the year's budget with two months left. On Sunday, November 22, we will be taking a love offering to support this ministry. If you would like to contribute, make plans to give at the end of the worship service. Our children will have offering buckets at the door, especially for this ministry. The Police Hospitality ministry is how we thank the men and women for their service. I hope you will join in giving.
We have an urgent need for a volunteer to serve on the Transportation team as a driver on Sunday mornings. We have members as well as guests who live in Senior adult living facilities and need transportation to worship. If you are interested or have questions, please contact Jim Manis 423/322-7743 or Tony Leonard 423/290-9957 as soon as possible.
Looking forward to seeking out God together this Sunday!
