Please join us to help make this a great night for our parents of special needs.  We will be serving them dinner and have a wonderful date night for these parents while their children are attending a prom at Stonegate.  Please wear your formal wear. February 10, 2023. Event starts at 6pm. Volunteers arrive @ 5:30pm. 20 volunteers would be a blessing.

Spectrum of Solutions is a organization that provides advocacy and programs for individuals with intellectual and cognitive disabilities. Please join us Saturday, February 25th at 9:00 am as we put together 2 picnic tables, paint existing benches, paint 4 square and BB court onto their parking lot. More on Spectrum of Solutions can be found on their website. We think we could use 40 awesome volunteers. More specifics for volunteers.

We want to provide our community with a place they can come pray in an attractive area on Crestview’s campus. Join us on Saturday Feb 18th as we put down trim, barrier, and gravel to make a path and attractive two color circle around the benches and cross. Time will be decided closer to the event. The more volunteers, the faster we get finished.

On Thursday, February 23rd @ 2:30 pm will meet at The Horseshoe arena to help the Baptist Crisis Center.  They will need us to help load all leftover items from the Rhea Lana event into a U-haul that we will then take to their storage building and unload. The Midland Baptist Crisis Center’s goal is to provide food, clothing, school uniforms, prayer, and more to those in need in the community. Up to 40 volunteers will bless the Crisis Center and be appreciated. More info on the Midland Baptist Crisis Center can be found on their website.

On Tuesday, February 28th, we will provide lunch for 63 staff members at Long Elementary. Will need help picking up food and delivering to the school. 10 volunteers would be awesome.
