Each year our Community Outreach Ministry team organizes a July Giving Tree event which collects supplies and monetary donations to support local organizations in our community. You may take an ornament off the beach ball tree in the Gathering Space of the church or select from the list of opportunities below. All items should be dropped off in the church before July 31.
