A group goes into the prison twice a month on Thursdays to lead Bible studies and worship with the inmates. ___________________ Angel Tree - A Prison Ministry - Cheryl Jones Since its beginning in 1982, Angel Tree Christmas has touched the lives of children whose parent or parents are incarcerated. Through the loving participation of thousands of churches across the nation, local children of prisoners receive two gifts: one is a toy and one is an article of clothing. Our church members deliver the gifts to the children in our area. The gifts are given in the name of the absent parent and Jesus. ___________________ Family Promise - Marcia Pope Throughout the year homeless families stay at our church for one week at a time. During this week, some 205 hours are filled by volunteers who sleep over, prepare meals, and help set-up and take down. ___________________ Boxes for Front Lines - Madelyn Bassett Volunteers collect items, pack boxes and mail them to the men and women serving our country in Iraq. ___________________ Churches Touching Lives for Christ - Bert & Lois Booth CTLC is an evangelical cooperative ministry of churches working together to meet needs of individuals in order to introduce them to Christ.
