November 2024 Prayers

Dear Church on the Street Family,

In this month of gratitude, we give thanks for the many ways the Church on the Street and its partners care for one another. From Worship to laundry to bowl making, volunteers, Church on the Street folk, and partners make Christ's love known. 

Thanks to continued support and generosity, we provided Thanksgiving Dinner boxes for over 150 people to enjoy. We look forward to December and the opportunity to share Christmas Giving with many households as well. Special December events include Giving Tuesday on December 3rd and Laundry with Love, which is shifted to December 23rd due to the Christmas holiday. 

As we look toward a new month, mark your calendars for special events in February. Health and Healing will be on February 1st, and the Empty Bowls Dinner/Fundraiser will be on February 20th. 

We keep doing God's work because of you. Your prayers sustain the people and this ministry. Thanks be to God!

It's great to be Church together!
Pastor Chris & Intern Deacon Mara
