Get Involved Suwanee-Sugar Hill

Do you like to cook or bake? We are looking for members who would like to help us feed the children and moms at the Home of Hope Children’s Shelter. Our City Impact team has committed to bringing a homemade dinner based on a detailed menu the first Saturday of each month. Volunteer to bring a portion of the main meal, veggies, bread or dessert on a rotational basis. Sign up to be on the team by emailing isaacskathy@gmail.com. You can choose which months and which menu items you would like to bring. 

North Gwinnett Co-op is collecting notes of encouragement for families who are struggling during the COVID-19 crisis. The notes will be included in boxes of emergency food that are distributed across our service area. This is a simple but meaningful way for our community to stay connected and encourage one another during this difficult time. For more information contact Kathy Isaacs at isaacskathy@gmail.com.

The North Gwinnett Co-Op is now offering mobile Food Pantry services and needs volunteers to help deliver food once the van arrives at one of three multiple locations.  Locations include Countryside Village of Gwinnett, Peachtree Village and Countryside Village of Lake Lanier during the day.  For more information and to sign up for a specific date use this link https://northgwinnettco-op.volunteerlocal.com/volunteer/?id=57458.

• Volunteer to mentor a child once a week at a school near you.
• Hygiene products are often last on the list when budgets are tight. Help keep the school's pantry full by holding a drive for these items. We'll supply a list of what's needed most and how to do a drive.
• Write notes of encouragement to teachers.

For more information, email Andrea Nickell at anickell1970@gmail.com.

This ministry is designed to meet the immediate needs of families in our church. The meals are distributed to families for a variety of reasons which include death or illness in the family, an urgent need for immediate food (while working with the deacons to provide additional resources), or another crisis. The meals are distributed by the Shepherdesses based on information they have from speaking with church members or that they receive from those concerned about a family. 

Please fill out the form and we contact you with information on meal preparation, recipes and a time to meet!
