OJ & Outreach will be Sunday, August 9th, 11:00am (immediately following the 10:00am service) in the Great Hall! We need your help to make this happen! We will be packing food into 200 backpacks for Homewood Helps. These backpacks will go home with food insecure students to ensure that they have something to eat over the weekends. Lunch will also be served. Thank you!  Please sign up here to participate.
