Outreach

Any Soldier

Thank you to all who contributed to the packing party last Sunday. We are sending 111 care packages to our soldiers overseas.

Prayer Squares
Looking for a way to share your love and support for wounded veterans? We have three prayer quilts that will go to the Polytrauma Rehabilitation Clinic at the VA Center in West Los Angeles. Stop by the Founders Room after the 10:00 service to tie a knot and say a silent prayer for a wounded warrior. It only takes a few minutes, yet offers much-needed support to a veteran.
