This is what we've been doing recently and how you can get involved in current and upcoming projects.

 

  • Our next Interfaith Hospitality Network of Athens host week is October 3-10, 2010.  Volunteer at the day-center, provide a meal, host guests, or drive the van.  Click here to view opportunities to serve at First Baptist and to sign up.
  • The Athens Emergency Food Bank currently needs: canned pork and beans, dried pasta, etc. Items can be left in the "food bank" bin in the missions room.
  • The Council on Aging is looking for small Bingo prizes, plastic bags to help transport meals-on-wheels and dog and cat food. There is a labeled box in the missions room.
  • IHNA now has a storage unit, therefore can now accept donations of furniture and other household items.  To arrange to make a donation please contact IHNA directly at 706-425-1881.
