September Outreach Update

 


Corinthians 5:7 " For we walk by faith, not by sight"

We are very excited to serve Hope Global this month!! As most of you know, they are right in our "backyard" in the Chalk committee serving the kids of that community by offering a safe haven for afterschool. We are stocking their afterschool snack pantry this month! So bring in healthy kids snacks and lets fill the pantry!!

October Outreach Update

A time for fall foliage, pumpkins, costumes, and cooler weather--AND, Blessing of the Animals! We were thrilled to join with the Episcopal church this year at Line Creek Brewery for a festive and fun blessing for the many animals. Newnan Coweta Humane Society was thrilled with the numerous donations made to Pokey's Place. We also celebrated CORRAL in October and it showed in the tremendous monetary donations made to help support the work they do with their riding therapy program. If you want to continue supporting these organizations during the year, please contact the organizations directly for how you can get more involved! Stay tuned for an exciting November as we support Bridging the Gap--to provide Thanksgiving meals to those in need and the annual Christmas in Coweta program. Last Outreach Workshop of the year will be Sunday, Nov 17th immediately following the service. This is our annual cookie swap --so come by and enjoy some goodies!

  A Heartfelt Thank You to Our Amazing Volunteers This past Sunday on August 11, 2024, 115 volunteers gathered together in Barrow Hall for a meal packing event for Rise Against Hunger.  Volunteers came together with a shared mission: to combat hunger and provide hope to communities in need. This event was a resounding success, thanks to the dedication and hard work of our incredible volunteers. We packed 14,256 meals!!! In the past 9 years, Newnan Presbyterian Church has packed 130,655 meals and they have provided food to places like Haiti, Sierra Leone, Philippines and Zambia.  Incredible job everyone!!! 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...
