Ministry Announcements:

HOPE:

  • HOPE Facebook Group: While we continue to meet virtually, we would like to encourage you all to follow our chapter HOPE Charlotte on Facebook. With the increased demand for assistance in our communities due to COVID, this will enable you to stay informed regarding future service projects that we will schedule. It's simple. go to Facebook, Do a search for HOPE Charlotte and request to join the group.
  • Loaves & Fishes: We have had a partnership with Loaves & Fishes food pantry located off Billy Graham PKWY that serves our neighbors in the West Corridor for several years now. Due to the increased demand of families in need of food, they began to meet those needs by distributing food from their mobile food pantry. We've reach an agreement with them that will allow them to meet this need from our parking lot located at 2200 Ashley Rd Charlotte every Monday from 1:30 PM until 3PM indefinitely. They are in need of volunteers to assist them. If you are interested please contact Mike Dames: mikedames@prodigy.net or 704-724-2362 . Please wear your HOPE T-Shirt when you serve
  • 2020 School Tools Campaign: Our children will be returning to school shortly. Due to COVID, instruction in most districts will begin virtually. However, our children still need school supplies in order to assist them with their learning. Many our students are coming from households where resources were already low. Now they have been impacted even more due to the pandemic. Here is where we can stand in the gap and meet a need. Today we are officially launching our 2020 School Tools Campaign We are asking all who can to personally participate as well as to recruit colleagues, friends and neighbors to collect school supplies thru September 11th. There will be one drop off date for the supplies that you collect. That date is Saturday September 12th. Members in the South region can drop off the collected supplies at the designated times at the church building. Members in the North Region can drop off supplies at the church building or the Dames house in Harrisburg. This year all supplies collected will be given to:
    • Students in our church who are in need. All you need to do is notify your small group leader if your child needs supplies.
    • The remainder of the supplies collected will be donated to our community partner - Ashley Park Elementary which is a Title I School located just a few miles from the front door of our church.
    • Thank you for your continued prayers and support. If you have additional questions please contact me at mikedames@prodigy.net or 704-724-2362

MMOG:

  • MMOG TENT CITY & MORE: After spending multiple times with different community groups throughout our city during this pandemic time, it is very heavy on our hearts to serve and give to the orphans,Widows, homeless, harassed, helpless and the sick. The story of the Tent City neighbors here in our own town has been weighing on us for months and knowing that they have been displaced and opposed hurts even more. (Matt 25:34-40)
    • The MMOG Ministries have been planning for a while now to serve and here we GO! We are starting to gather supplies such as BIBLES, Mask, Sanitizer, water, Toiletries, tarps, blankets, general gift cards that can be used for food and preparing for a serving day coming up next weekend.
