Love others one load of laundry at a time

Saturday, Nov. 15 (8:00 am-4:00 pm)
Come "show God's love in a practical way" as we put quarters in washing and drying machines and listen to people's stories. We will also have an activity or two, like jigsaw puzzles, to help get the conversations started. We will be partnering with a local laundromat, Yukon Laundry (1220 S. Holly Ave), to help people do their laundry for FREE. This ministry is a tangible sign of God's love as we connect with our neighbors and serve our community. Stay for one hour or all day!

Financial Peace University returns Sept 10

Imagine how much more you could bless others if money weren't a burden. If you had no debt payments. No money stress. That's the freedom that God wants for us - and it's possible! Join our Financial Peace University (FPU) class starting on September 10 at 6:30 pm. This 9-week course walks through God's ways of handling money so we can live a debt-free, generous, more abundant life. Class coordinators will be Tim and Catrina Bourne.
