Asset-Based Community Development discussion on March 8

All are invited to join us on Tuesday, March 8, 6:30 to 8 PM to learn about Asset-Based Community Development. Jim Moynihan (www.weareonechurch.com), whose calling is ministry to and with the local community, will talk to us about Asset-Based Community Development and the ways in which St. Andrew’s can be more productive in our community organizing and outreach in 2022. This is open to anyone interested in the topic as well as any guests or neighbors that you would like to bring. Coffee and light refreshments will be provided. No RSVP necessary. For questions or ideas, feel free to contact Matt Deller at pablodeller@outlook.com or 757-812-9852.

PORT volunteers needed

St. Andrew’s will be partnering with Denbigh United Presbyterian Church on Tuesday evening, March 22, through Wednesday morning, March 23, for our second PORT commitment this winter. PORT is a program that provides meals and overnight accommodations at host churches for the homeless in our community. Our volunteers will be feeding and hosting the overnight guests at the site location (302 Denbigh Blvd, Newport News). We are looking for a leader for our cook team! The St. Andrew’s cook team will prepare a hot dinner meal and “breakfast in a bag” items for the overnight guests. Volunteers in the evening will greet the guests, help store their personal bags and hand out bedding. Morning volunteers will assist in handing out bagged breakfasts, returning personal belongings, and taking in bedding. If you would like to join us on any of these teams, a sign-up sheet will be made available in the Main Street Lobby or you may contact Matt Deller at pablodeller@outlook.com or 757-812-9852.
