Our Hands-On-Mission
SOCH Welcome Inn
February 23-March 1st
During this week we will be partnering with Northbrook Presbyterian to host a week of overnights at the SOCH Welcome Inn. This will be similar to the SOS overnights we’ve done in the past, but we will be hosting at the Starr Presbyterian Building.
As it was with SOS there will be a lot of opportunities to volunteer for this mission project.
More information will be coming about those opportunities after the Holiday Season.
Greenfield Supports…….
We believe that God loves everyone. Our faith is centered in Christ. His example of loving service compels us to live our faith. We do this by creating a caring community where all are welcomed and encouraged to join in worship, outreach, and mission work both near and far. We invite you to learn more about our mission activities and join in our service to others.
Members and Friends of Greenfield Presbyterian work together to make a difference in so many ways and they have lots of fun doing it! Some of the missions we are supporting or have supported:
