November Outreach Update



So much to be thankful for as we wrap up our year here at Outreach. With the generosity of our amazing congregation, BTG will be blessed with $2,135 in monetary donations! We really appreciate Jamar Joiner, BTG director, speaking to our congregation and emphasizing the tremendous impact our congregation has on our community through the partnership with Bridging the Gap. We are thrilled to partner with BTG's program, Christmas in Coweta, and our youth program to provide Christmas for 8 children this holiday season. The youth did an amazing job of shopping for all the gifts--there are going to be some very happy children on Christmas day!

During the month of December, please see our Giving Tree in the Narthex where you can pull an ornament to support a particular group or you can use the QR code to give or drop a check or cash in the donation box at the base of the tree.

With incredible thanks and gratitude for all you do Newnan Presbyterian Church!!

"And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him." Colossians 3:17

Faith truly in Action. Their efforts, along with those of many other volunteers, highlight the profound impact that a community can have when united by a common cause. These meals, often referred to as "Memorial Meals," not only provide essential nutrition but also carry the love and dedication of those who packed them. For the communities receiving these meals, they rep...
