 We are in need of volunteers to visit patients in your community. Although visiting hospice patients isn't for everyone, for those who choose to give back in this way, it is a very rewarding experience for both volunteer and patient. Wouldn't we all want someone there for us when we needed the support. Angelic Health Hospice looking for volunteers For as little as an hour or two a month you can make a difference to a hospice patient in your community. Angelic Health Palliative & Hospice Care is asking you to share your time and compassion to those on their final journey. Your visits can mean so very much to hospice patients and their loved ones. Your volunteer service will fit your schedule and interests, and visit assignments are your choice.

Our Mission offerings for June is the Youth Group Mission Trip. This August

the Youth Group will be going on a mission trip to Colcord, West Virginia. They

will be working to restore homes and provide safe, functional living for those who

cannot otherwise afford it. Over the last two years the youth that have gone on these

trips have gained the same passion for mission work that I have. Along with

construction skills, these trips offer a lesson in humility and selflessness that is

difficult to learn otherwise. The students will be forced out of their comfort zones,

learn to place others first and truly be the hands and feet of Jesus to those in need.

This trip is an opportunity for them to fulfill the command Jesus gave after setting

an example of servitude; “Do as I have done to you (John 13:15)”

You made the last two trips possible and we are extremely grateful. As always,

every dollar donated to the Youth Mission Trip fund goes directly towards making

this trip possible. Thank you for your continued support.
