This year, as for the past several years, our Thanksgiving Offering will be designated for St. Laurence Chapel in Pompano Beach.

Started in 1988, St. Laurence Chapel provides daytime refuge for the homeless and economically disadvantaged. It provides their clients with 2 meals a day, shower facilities, clean clothing, an address and telephone messaging center, and Adult Basic Education, along with opportunities for worship. There is a Registered Nurse on the premises to administer medical assessments. A master's level social worker provides referrals for substance abuse treatment and mental health treatment. St. Laurence Chapel also offers referrals for housing, employment and food stamps, bus tokens or passes for job interviews, as well as food packets for families.

During the past several years some members of our congregation have volunteered at Laurence Chapel to help serve a holiday meal. For more info, contact the church office, 954.427.0222 or email us.
