Bless a local family this Christmas season
You can make an impact in our community by sponsoring a family to assist in providing food and gifts this Christmas season. Reach Out Church works with Hyde Park Community Cares to provide for families that cannot financially afford to bless their children this Christmas season. If you would like to be involved in this ministry, you can sign up on our list in the foyer, contact Cathy Kelly, or call the church office for more information at (845) 229-6080.
Our Giving Tree is here!
If you would like to be involved in helping out the homeless and less fortunate this winter, Reach Out Church is accepting winter accessory donations for our Giving Tree. Our Giving Tree is set up at the back of the church sanctuary every winter and we decorate it with gloves, mittens, hats, and scarves to collect for a donation. So if you’re out shopping this Christmas season or if you find yourself with extra winter apparel, please take the extra effort to bless those who have difficulty just to stay warm throughout these colder seasons.
After Christmas, we send the clothing to an organization which distributes our donation to those living on the streets and those in need. Clothing donations can be dropped off during office hours and on the weekend before and after our services.
