Altar Flower Delivery
Do you ever wonder what happens to the beautiful flower arrangements that grace the altars on Sunday mornings? The flowers would go to waste if not for the Altar Flower Delivery Ministry. The flowers arrangements are broken apart into smaller arrangements and distributed to those who are ill or home-bound.
Angel Food
Our Angel Food Ministry offers support through the preparation and delivery of a meal to households experiencing illness, complicated pregnancies, birth, loss, or similar challenges. A large team shares in this Caring Ministry. If you can provide or deliver food occasionally, please contact the church office, 817-481-2559.
Angel Wings
Do you have an extra seat in your vehicle on Sunday mornings or during the week? There are members of our church that would love to come worship with us, but are not able to drive themselves. We also have members that occasionally need a ride to medical appointments. If you would be willing to offer a ride to one of these individuals, sign up for Angel Wings.
Bread of Life
Visit homebound members in their homes to serve the communion elements to them.
