Loving Our Neighbors COVID-19 Offering

"Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” Matthew 6:21

 

The pandemic has helped shine a light on where our treasure truly is; in the lives of our neighbors. We open our arms to those among us who are particularly vulnerable to this crisis because our hearts and our treasure are with them.
