CAMP WASHINGTON - HERE FOR OUR NEIGHBORS
Camp Washington is committed to helping our neighbors by providing individual frozen meals, prepared in-house by Ben, packed and ready to heat. We offer these meals, with love, to our neighbors who need us most right now.
We will distribute meals on Fridays in the front circle driveway at Camp. We will practice all social distancing protocols - cars will drive-up to the table and meals will be delivered to individual car windows. We will provide meals until we run out.
PLEASE share this news with those you know who need meals, or come by and pick up and deliver for those who can't, but need.
ALSO, we welcome donations of non-perishable pantry items which we will in turn offer to our guests who stop by on Friday. Pantry items may be brought to Camp on Wednesdays, a collection area will be set-up in the front circle driveway at Camp.
We are holding you in prayer and look forward to being together again, soon.
During these uncertain times, we are thankful to provide hope and hospitality, as we join Jesus in the neighborhood.
Meal Distribution:
Friday, August 7, 10am - 2pm
Donation of Pantry Items:
Wednesday, August 5, 9am - 2pm
