This past Saturday, August 7th, the group of folks interested in the ministry of Welcome Home met to continue the process toward re-opening our ministry to people in need. The focus was in how we can provide what Welcome Home uniquely offers in a safe and practical way. Discussion centered around...
On Saturday, July 24th, a good group of folks gathered together to discuss, pray and plan for the renewal of Welcome Home, our ministry with local people in need.
