Opportunities to Serve this Month at Journey
As you may recall, Journey has six city initiatives that we focus on throughout the year. During the months of October and November, the city initiative that we focus on is “Recovery from Addiction.” Below are a few options on how you can engage whether from your home or in person.
Personal Item Collection for Healing Transitions
Journey has been partnering with the Healing Transitions organization for several years now. Their mission is to offer innovative peer-based, recovery-oriented services to homeless, uninsured and underserved individuals with alcoholism and other drug addictions.
We want to provide items for the men and women who are currently in their recovery programs. You can accomplish this one of two ways:
1. Contribute financially using Church Center. Make sure the “For the City” fund is selected so that your gift is designated properly.
2. Use the shopping list below to purchase any or all of the items and drop them off at the church prior to Sunday, November 8, 2020.
Personal Items:
Socks, toothpaste, shampoo, deodorant, and lotion for dry skin.
