Mission Sunday Special Offering

We at FPC Conroe provide both funds and volunteer time to serve food to the homeless in the Conroe area. In the past year, we have provided over 7,500 meals to persons seeking assistance from the Salvation Army Soup Kitchen, Conroe House of Prayer, and our Family Promise guests. We are blessed to be able and willing to do this, but more (much more) is needed if we are to continue support-ing these programs.

The Salvation Army Soup Kitchen is our largest local source for services to the homeless. In the first three months of this year, they have seen 1,600 different clients, provided over 3,000 nights of shelter, and served over 15,000 meals. To support this powerful work in our community, we are asking for your help. On May 19th, we are asking each of you to contribute to the FPC Annual Mission Sunday Special Offering, supporting the Soup Kitchen.

Please mark this date on your calendar, and consider what you can give to support this vital ministry. We need your help, and the homeless population of Conroe needs your help as well.
