DEACON MINISTRY
To Our Beloved Congregation,
​
Our hearts are heavy as we witness the devastating impact of the fires in California. As shared in Church on Sunday, many of us personally today know someone who has been directly affected, and our prayers are with them during this difficult time.
We have gathered a list of reputable organizations accepting donations to support those in need. This list can be found below. As you feel moved, join us in offering support and hope to those affected by this crisis.
​
Thank you for your compassion and generosity. Together, we can make a difference.
Blessings,
The KPC Deacons
