Donegal churches have an opportunity to support the work of Columbia's Hands Across the Street Ministries. We are grateful that partnerships are being established. Yet the needs continue to increase. Transformation starts with YOU! Here is the current work of HAS:

·         Extended shelter for year-round service to the guests who we guide toward housing. Over 50 guests during the winter and now 7-8 a night

·         Rent for the transitional living facility - huge need for night volunteers

·         SFSP-summer lunch program bursting at the seams

o  Day three and we ran out of lunches at each of the 7 sites

o  NEW - preparing bag lunches for parents who are also hungry

o  Community Meal - this week-served 140 meals *see note below

o  Clothing Bank seeing higher numbers

·         Paying wages to those who facilitate the work

HAS always needs volunteers for lunches, meals, and transitional housing shelter. Become a partner in what is growing to be Donegal's most unique and urgent local mission field. We currently have a $25K shortfall. HAS prays that their ministry will continue as Christ's hands serve the less fortunate in the Columbia community.
