Soles4Souls Ministry
The Soles4Souls ministry collects shoes dropped off at the church and donates them. Those shoes are donated to people in need as well as repurposed to make more shoes and help small businesses! The picture above is Kayelene Clark as she picked up donations when the box was full.
Find out more about Soles4Souls at https://soles4souls.org and bring your gently used shoes to the drop off box at the church!
Panera Bread Pickup Ministry
Look at all that bread Maize and Tom Micek picked up as part of the Panera Bread Pickup Ministry! The Panera Bread Pick Up Ministry helps prevent leftovers from going to waste and drops it off in the community. The team rotates to pick up on Mondays and drops it off at the Linn County Jail, ASAC (Area Substance Abuse Council) and the Larry A Nelson Center. We're currently in the process of adding a weekend pick up day, and adding more community partners. If you know of an organization that would take the leftover bread, let us know!
