This Month’s Highlight

Back to School

It’s almost time for our kids to head back to school!

For many families, this can be a time of financial stress, and we want to help them! Join us this month as we rally together to support families in our community as they prepare for the new school year. Our collective goal is to show the love of Christ by meeting both physical and relational needs during this important season.

Each campus is supporting families in different ways during this back-to-school season. Stop by the Connections Corner during any weekend service to learn more, donate, or get involved.
