Helping Hands
Practically Loving people
Our Friday Craft & Care Group is a welcoming space for women to connect, create, and give back. We come together to sew clothing and bags, knit beanies, and prepare care packages to support those in need.
Some members gather in person at the church, while others contribute by working from home and dropping off their handmade items. Everyone is welcome, whether you’re a regular church attendee or simply want to be part of a practical, caring community that makes a difference.
