The days leading up to Easter Sunday are sacred to many Christians, whether they live in homes or in the woods. For those who were not raised in the church, they can give occasion for curiosity. It even piques the interest of non-believers, wondering, “Who is this Jesus who would die for the world?” Local churches partnered with The Source again this year to offer information and celebration to our homeless and needy neighbors for Easter's holy week.
Hungry people are coming to The Source in droves. Our kitchen team ensures that more people can be fed without an increase in cost with the installation of a new dishwasher. Of course, we offer more than a soup kitchen, as each plate is served with lovin' from our oven.

The recent Joyce Meyer conference provided us with an opportunity for personal growth on many levels.
