In a season when many families are feeling the strain, the call to feed our neighbors feels more urgent than ever. Every meal is a way to share God’s love. Our Christ Church community is working to ensure that hungry people are not forgotten. Find ways you can help below.
Intergenerational Day of Service: After 8:45 am worship in the Church or All Saints’ Hall, help assemble care packages for our neighbors still recovering from Hurricane Helene in Bat Cave, NC.
“Stuff the Truck” for Nourish Up: To support our Charlotte neighbors facing hunger or food insecurity, we are partnering with Nourish Up to “Stuff the Truck” on our Intergenerational Day of Service, November 16.
