Bible Study Volunteer for Ivy Hall

Impact Johns Creek is seeking a volunteer to oversee the Ivy Hall ministry. This person would be responsible for coordinating a Bible study/worship time from 10:30 - 11:00 AM each Thursday. Ivy Hall is located just down the street from Perimeter on 5690 State Bridge Road and it would be a tremendous blessing to our immediate neighbors.

No Longer Bound Thrift Store
Ongoing
No Longer Bound No Longer Bound is a one year, Christ-centered, residential treatment program for men in addiction.
Located in Cumming, we have been rescuing addicts, regenerating men and reconciling families for 31 years. In January 2023, No Longer Bound will be opening a new 20,000 square foot thrift store at 6000 Medlock Bridge Pkwy, Johns Creek, GA 30097 (where Shoe Gallery is today).
Proceeds from No Longer Bound thrift stores make it possible for men in addiction to get the help they need. Starting in November of this year, we will be looking for men and women to help us set up our new thrift store (assembling racks, sorting donations, etc.)
Beginning in January, we will be looking for ongoing volunteers to help sort donations and merchandise our stores. Donations are always welcome. This is a great way to find community, while serving our local community who is severely impacted by addiction. For more information, contact Carol Smith, carol.smith@nolongerbound.com.
