SERVING OPPORTUNITIES
For
you were called to freedom, brothers; only don't turn your freedoms
into an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one
another." Galatians 5:13 Living in a Christ
centered community means we are going to serve Him and serve others.

Homeless Shelter Breakfast
The
first Saturday of every month we prepare and serve breakfast at the
Appleton homeless shelter. Meet at the shelter at 7:00 AM. It is
located at 400 Division Street in Appleton- across from the
Post-Office. We’ll be
making and serving breakfast to whomever is staying in the shelter on
Saturday mornings. Our goal is to love and serve people staying in the
shelter that might be going through a rough time in life. Stay and eat
with the folks at the shelter, there is no better way to connect and
love others than just sitting and sharing a meal. Interested in
helping? Just show up, or contact Bradd Yenor. Directions to Shelter
Blood Drives
Crossing
is involved with multiple Blood Drives each year, because we believe in
giving to those in need. This blood donated is kept in the Fox Valley,
used for people in local hospital's. The blood you donate will go to a
recipient who many need your donation to survive. Please consider giving at our next drive!
Donating blood is made easy, and signing up is even easier! Visit the Community Blood Center website and pick a time to donate at our next drive. Our Sponsor code: M006
Haven't donated? That's ok! Their website has instructions for you.
Donated, but forgot your doner ID ? call the Blood Center to receive it 920-738-3131
Soup Kitchen meals (for Double Portion)
We are partnering with Double Portion, a Soup Kitchen held at St. Thomas Church in Menasha, WI. We see the need of such a great service Double Portion provides, and want to do our part in this local cause. We will do a few meals throughout the year as a group, but they have many opportunities for you to get involved more consistantly. For more info on DP, go here.
