Join Us For Community Missons Saturday

Published On: September 1st, 2023

Giving back to our community is one of the most special attributes of Slatersville Congregational Church. Come join us on Saturday, September 30th for a morning of giving at Community Missions Saturday.

Breakfast – First, we will gather at 8:30 AM in Globe Hall for a simple breakfast of coffee and pastries.

Blessing Bags – Then we will work as a team to put together 75 Blessing Bags (see article entitled “Blessing Bags are Back” for more details). This is a great opportunity for students to earn community service hours and interested community members of all ages to give back to those in need.

Annual ShelterWalk in Woonsocket – Once the Blessing Bags are made, we will depart as a group for the ShelterWalk – “Walk a Mile in Their Shoes”, which will begin at 800 Clinton Street in Woonsocket. Sign-In is at 10:00 AM and the walk begins at 10:30 AM. Hosted by Community Care Alliance, the walk is just 1 mile this year, so come one, come all and help us support the homeless in our community! The Missions Committee is donating $500 on behalf of our church, but your personal donations are also welcome.

There will be a sign-up sheet in Globe Hall for Community Missions Saturday. Please sign up for any and all of these special events in the life of our church!
