Current Ministry Needs

January 2012

Do you enjoy cooking and sharing your food with others? We’re in need of additional lunches for this semester. If you or any group you belong to would like to provide lunch for our Phase Two program (15 – 18 people), please call the center at 757-0416 or e-mail Becky Ellison at becky@cwjcwaco.org. Our lunch providers enjoy coming and visiting with our women as we all eat together.
