This July our youth will be serving at the Good Samaritan Center as part of their summer programming. Read below to find out more about this organization and ways you can support them through some upcoming events they asked us to share with our church family.
"The Good Samaritan Center is a private, non-profit social service agency serving families and individuals in crisis situations since 1972. It was started under the direction and financial support of seven Jackson churches. Since that time, The Good Samaritan Center has grown to include a main office in Jackson, as well as an office in Laurel, Mississippi. The Good Samaritan Center's Mission is to assist families and individuals in emergency situations. We have a clothing closet, a food pantry, a vintage resale store N.U.T.S. (Neat Used Things for Sale) and we staff a community center, The Envision Center, located on Albemarle Road.
The Good Samaritan Center has three Charity Runs. The charity run coming up in July is our Balloon Chase in Canton, Mississippi, on Saturday, July 1st. The link to register is here. Our charity run, 12K's for the Holidays at the Cedars in North Fondren, is on November 18, 2023: Register here.

Captial Area Habitat for Humanity's 2023 Faith Build is currently undeway. The home, located at 4663 Estelle Drive in Jackson, will house Latonia Blackmon and her 5 children (ages 16, 14, 12, 10, and 8), allowing her to move from a 3 bedroom apartment where she pays $1,200 a month in rent to a 5 bedroom, 2.5 bath home for $500-600 a month. All of this is possible because of monetary and building efforts of area churches. Parkway Hills has committed $1,000 to aid with the project. Our May Communion Offering will go toward this commitment and maybe even beyond! Our work day is the morning of Saturday, June 10. We will need 10 to 12 volunteers.
