Stephens Elementary School Food Pantry
Our church has been serving the families and students of Stephens Elementary School by providing weekend meals. With support of the Arkansas FoodBank, food is ordering, picked up and distributed by our teams every Friday during the school year.
During the time of this pandemic with the schools shut down, we still deliver on Fridays. We have received some grants to continue this program, and will continue as long as it is financially possible to do so. We rely on donations from our church community to continue support of this program.

Our House
We have supported Our House, a homeless shelter, for many years. Our team of faithful supporters serve a dinner every month for the residents. This effort is very rewarding and the people we serve are appreciative.
Our House Resources
The Van
A small team of dedicated people meet to sort donated clothing for The Van, a volunteer run organization that provides support to the homeless.
