Go Friends Helpers
Go Friends has been furnishing meals for one of our families on Thursdays whose mom is battling cancer. This year she is unable to cook or bake for her family. We would like to involve the church in this outreach. If we get more than one meal on Thursdays, they can use it for another day. If you are interested, please contact Bonnie Weber or the church office. Thank you so much for your support through the years.
