Forty Days

Pat Roach on February 10, 2010

During the 40 days that make up the season of Lent, the Hope community wants to not only focus on ourselves and our spiritual need of God's grace, but also on the physical needs of those in our community.  This year, we will do that by focusing our efforts on the needs of the ministry of Dinner and A Movie.  Over the next 40 days, we will be collecting the following goods to donate to D&M during Easter.
