October Walk Around

The October 16th walk around offering will to Hope Harbor.  

Hope Harbor offers family-style care for teens as they heal from a variety of issues that are unfortunately commonplace for youth today. These include past abuse, trauma, anger, substance use, mental health challenges, exploitation, self-harm, suicidal ideation, anxiety, attachment issues, and more.  They work with ordinary kids who are healing from extraordinary things; each one a child of God, loved by the Savior.
