Hello Friends,
We are so thankful for each one of you and hope you are staying healthy! We know many of you are struggling with illness, disease, COVID, as well as concerns for our world and safety. Please let us know if you have any specific prayer requests by calling 763-263-4277. Having the opportunity pray for each other, serve others, show gratitude, and love one another as Christ loved us is a gift we treasure!
Faith in Action continues to serve elderly and those who are needing our assistance through coordinating transportation, light cleaning, friendly visits, minor home repairs and more. We are getting many referrals from local county workers each week. Currently we are coordinating rides for folks needing dialysis, therapy and chemotherapy to get to their appointments. These rides may take many calls to clinics and family to make sure of the times, length of appointments and dates. These appointments can be 3-5 hours long and need two different volunteer drivers. With your ongoing support, we continue to help people get to these very important appointments.
This past August, 92 golfers came out for Faith in Actions Annual Golf Scramble at Pebble Creek Golf in Becker. It was a beautiful day and we had more golfers than ever before. Thank You to our many supporters!
Our Annual Rake the Town is in full swing and we are busy working with churches, organizations, businesses and families so they can rake a lawn or two for someone unable to do so. We’ve have had hundreds of volunteers participate! Check out pictures of a few of these groups here.
