About the Parenting and Pregnant Women’s Program:
This program allows mothers to keep children birth to five with them during their treatment. Women can begin substance use treatment during their pregnancy, deliver their baby, and return to treatment without disruption. Children receive therapeutic childcare while mom is learning how to manage her disease of addiction and picking up parenting skills. The Parenting and Pregnant Women’s Residential Treatment Facility is doing a special collection for diapers, wipes, nursing pads, and new & unopened breast pumps. ChristChurch is participating in this collection during September 2019.

Annual ChristChurch Backpack Drive
This ChristChurch service opportunity provides a way for our congregation to engage in serving locally. Backpacks and school supplies are needed for families with young children at the Family Promise Hillsboro shelter. Over the next two weeks we will collect school supplies to assemble 10-12 backpacks for children in a shelter setting.
Pick up a supply list in the Commons. Supplies are gratefully accepted through August 27th, 2017.
There are many ways to participate:
1) purchase one backpack and all the supplies needed to fill it
2) partner with another family to purchase all the supplies for a complete backpack
3) purchase any single items on the list and help fill backpacks after church on the last collection Sunday, August 27th
4) volunteer to deliver backpacks to the Family Promise shelter during the week of August 28th
You’ll find the collection basket in the Commons.
Thank you for considering joining in on this important service to our community neighbors!

Lent 2017 - Baby Care Kits
Our Lenten global service project this year will be Baby Care Kits.
Our kits will go around the world, helping people in need provide for their families.
We will be collecting baby care kit supplies (ages 6 -24 months) in the barrel starting this Sunday through Easter.
We will assemble them after Worship in late April.
Shirley Dinger is leading us on the project again this year. She's laid out an example of what goes in each kit in the Commons.

Karen Bender, Community of ChristChurch member shares about her commitment to volunteering at the Rock Creek Church Food Bank:
I have been volunteering there for over four years, every Tuesday morning from 8:15 to roughly 1:30 or 2:00. We help hundreds of people that come every Tuesday between the hours of 9:00 and 1:00 or 4:00 and 7:00 with the need for food. They are one of the best food pantries in the NW as I'm told.
All is free, of course, and they provide vegetables (fresh at times), meat, canned food items, snacks, bread, pastries, rice, noodles, milk, eggs, etc. The inventory of what is provided to the clients varies week to week but most people leave with about 7-8 bags of groceries every single Tuesday.
This isn't just a pantry for Washington County. They serve anybody from anywhere in God's name and even if somebody doesn't have an address (homeless), they can still sign up.
I love volunteering there so much. To see the happy people and children get food to survive is an amazing feeling for me.
The one thing they have been needing over the years is toilet paper for the clients in need. Although Linda Eld (the former Pastor there) and I have talked about this several times, she indicates all her efforts to get toilet paper now and then is futile most times. She has applied and asked for this donation but it never seems to happen.
Thank you for donating to this important cause in our community!
