Socktober: October Mission Project

/in /by

Sunday is the last day to bring in your sock donations for Micah Ministry. If you are out and about this weekend, pick up a few pairs. Even a small act of love, such as donating a pair of socks, can make a big difference in the lives of our neighbors who are unhoused or food insecure.

A donation bucket is located at the Children’s Ministry check-in desk. Thank you for your donations and helping us live out our mission to serve our neighbors here and around the world!

During the month of October, the kids in Children’s Ministry have challenged the church to collect 300 pairs of new socks for adult men and women who are guests of Micah Ministry. On Sunday, we had collected 99 pairs of socks. If you are out and about this weekend, pick up a few pairs. Even a small act of love, such as donating a pair of socks, can make a big difference in the lives of our neighbors who are unhoused or food insecure.

Broken Arrow Caring for Kids Clean Up Day

/in /by

Saturday, July 29 • 8:00 a.m.

One of the wonderful things about our church is that there is a spirit of service. While COVID disrupted some of the partnerships we had with several organizations we served, we are looking at ways we can reconnect and serve the community around us. Broken Arrow is an elementary school in Shawnee and throughout this next year, we will be partnering with them and offering support in a variety of ways.

On Saturday, July 29 at 8:00 a.m., Broken Arrow is hosting its annual Caring for Kids Clean Up Day. The main project will be weeding and mulching the beds and some planting in the planters around the entrance to the school. It generally only takes 2-3 hours. Please bring your rakes, gloves and personal drinks. Donuts will be provided.
