Children's Books Needed

We are collecting new and gently used books for the Help Group, an organization that works with special needs children and their families. These books are placed in the outpatient lobby for children where they read them and take them home. Books for primary and middle school children may be placed in a designated box located in Fellowship Hall. Thank you!

Rescate Family Rescue Center Needs

Rescate Family Rescue Center serves individuals and families in need in the West Valley by providing food, clothing, medical and educational services, as well as referrals as needed. Their ultimate goal is to sustain people in desperate circumstances, empowering them to achieve personal and financial independence. Rescate is in continuous need of dry beans and rice to feed the families they serve. If you would like to donate these items, please put them on the kitchen counter on Sunday mornings or during the week. Also, watch for urgent Rescate needs which will be listed in the bulletin on Sunday mornings or you can contact the Church Office. Thank you for your generous donations to this wonderful ministry!
