We are still collecting donations for The Inn Ministry. They are asking for donations of fresh produce, especially fruit, such as apples and oranges, but vegetables and salad greens, also.  They continue to need powdered milk, peanut butter, and protein. Cash donations are always needed for bus passes.



EVENTS CALENDAR:

The Touchstone theme for February is Hope.

Despite adversity, hope is a life orientation that believes we can prevail. Hope is a shapeshifter that adapts in the face of reality to “encourage” us, which means “to put heart into.”


February is American Heart Month

and African American History Month.
