Monthly Outreach
Rice Bowl Offering
This Sunday, April 28 during our 10am service, we will have our Rice Bowl offering for the month of April. It will be designated for "First Book of New Hanover County".
So please bring your pocket change and be generous so that we can make a big impact for those fragile families!
**What is the Rice Bowl Offering, you might ask? On the last Sunday of each month, during the children's time, the children circulate around the sanctuary with small bowls collecting pocket change...or any other form of money folks wish to give...which is designated for an organization, usually local, although sometimes global, that focuses on impacting the lives of children and youth. Our children are a big part of the offering that we receive each month because of their participation in collecting and bringing the offering forward to the altar for a special blessing. And your offerings that are gathered each month for these organizations that impact the lives of children, make more of a difference than I think any of us realize! Thank you for your support!

Federal Point Help Center
We collect food on a continual basis for the Federal Point Help Center. The Federal Point Help Center is our local food pantry/assistance ministry that helps Pleasure Island residents in need of food, clothing, gas, help with utility bills, rent and anything else it can afford to help with. Each month their needs list changes and we collect different items based on their needs.
Help Center needs for March: Soup, canned fish, small mayonnaise or Miracle Whip, canned meat and any other canned or packaged food items and toiletries are deeply appreciated. Sanctuary doors are open daily, 8am to 8pm. Any other packaged or canned food items will be gratefully accepted.
As you bring in your gifts of food to place them in the baskets near the altar, you are invited to say a prayer for those who will receive your gift! Thank you in advance for your generosity!
