Visitors from California and Singapore (friends of Juliet Huam, who coordinates our PHUMC Homeless Ministry) visited recently to learn more about our work at Grace Place. These visitors, generous supporters of this ministry from afar, wanted to get a first-hand look. They jumped right in to serve. If you would like to help volunteer with this ministry, contact Juliet.

Beds Delivered

Our first beds since we restarted our ministry have been delivered! Thank you, PHUMC family, for helping kids in our community have a safe, comforting place to rest. To join our efforts, head down to the basement carpentry shop after Wednesday dinner, contact the church office about helping with deliveries, or hit the link to donate to our Bunk Bed Ministry.

You're invited to join us for lunch, bingo, fellowship and a time of giving thanks for our many blessings. Tuesday, October 25 at 11:00 am in the Worship Center. We do ask that you RSVP by October 23 so we know how much food to prepare. You may call the church office or click here.
