We are always in need of volunteers to come assist with upkeep and renovations at the Glory House. Since the house was vacant for 7 years, we still have lots up projects to complete. We also have a new building coming our way soon that will need lots of love.

The first Saturday in August is our annual Back-to-School Bash. Volunteers give out school supplies to area children and we have fun games to play. We would love for your church or business to host a school-supply drive to assist with giving our area students a great start to a new school year.

When the weather starts to cool, that means it's time for movie nights. The community is invited to bring a lawn chair or blanket and enjoy freshly popped popcorn and a family, friendly movie on the front yard of our home.

Our annual Christmas Store is an opportunity for families referred to us by local agencies to come shop for Christmas gifts for their children at no cost. We always need helpers to donate items, wrap presents and sort donations for this very  special store.
