Community & Overseas
Baby Blankets
We started making “No-Sew” fleece blankets for newborns at Jefferson Medical Center in 2013. We started keeping count in 2014. We have made and delivered 988 blankets between 2014-2018. Add what we made in 2013 and the 40+ that we have ready to deliver now and it’s over 1,000! One thousand babies have been wrapped and taken home in our blankets! Thank you for your support! However, our supplies that we need to make these blankets are running low. We would be overjoyed to accept donations to continue this ministry. JoAnn Fabric cards can be purchased at church and given to Debby McCoy for purchasing supplies.
Spring & Fall Craft Fairs
The Women of Oakland hold a craft fair that is open to the community every spring and fall. The Spring Craft Fair features a chicken salad competition, and the Fall Craft Fair features a Chili Cook Off. Space is limited. Contact church office for more information.
Just Becuz...
Our community ministry seeks ways to provide some unexpected kindness to those around us to help them know how much Jesus loves them. Early morning coffee and donuts at the train station, food deliveries, and gift bags to the community are a few of our ways of showing God's love.
Around the World
