“A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples"

The committe gathers monthly to review the current church missions projects and to identify other needs in our community and in the world.

We have 4 teams that prepare and serve a meal in downtown Springfield.

We collect basic necessities that are shared with women in our local community that are in need.

The team gets together Wednesday ~ 9-12pm to do small maintenance projects around the church.

It takes a team of people to make our hall ready to host hundreds of families that come for the tree lighting, cookies and cocoa and of course to meet Santa!


Many hands go into the making of this important fundraiser for the Church. You too can be involved!
