Volunteers (individuals or families) are always needed to "adopt" the Blessing Box for one month with the goal to ensure the box is tended to and is restocked as needed.

Donations: We need regular and ongoing donations of nonperishable and unexpired food items, paper products such as toilet paper and paper towels, full size toiletry items, feminine hygiene products, and cleaning supplies.  Please consider adding a few items to your weekly shopping and bringing them with you to Hope.  Items can always be left in the blue bin outside the west doors.

The Conversation Cafe' is a weekly meeting for international visitors from other countries to learn and PRACTICE ENGLISH. We meet up and have conversations, and enjoy fun and games with friendly volunteers in a relaxed, safe, learning environment. Guided by Grace Stanczak and other volunteers, this weekly Wednesday (lunchtime and/or evening) meet up is sure to help improve ESL skills for beginners, intermediate, and advanced level speakers. Bring your favorite coffee or beverage!

Please email Jessica Beamer with questions and/or to be added to the email distribution list.
