Vacation Bible School
Together with the Monticello United Methodist Church, we hold a five-day Vacation Bible School, which includes free meals for all families with children attending.
Soles for Souls
Each fall, we provide vouchers to help families in need with the cost of shoes.
Samaritan's Purse Christmas Shoe Boxes
Each year, members of our congregation fill shoeboxes with small toys, hygiene products, and candy. Samaritan's Purse ships these shoeboxes worldwide.
Deacon Baskets
Each November, our deacons fill baskets with food items and distribute them to veterans in our community to thank them for their service.
