This ministry provides the basic needs for our church family and surrounding community, including but not limited to providing food for those in need. Our primary focus currently is providing over 100 bag lunches for Shades of Grace in Kingsport. Shades of Grace provides various services for the homeless in the Kingsport area. We meet on the 4th Monday of every month and make these lunches and deliver them to the Shades of Grace facility. We also provide various other types of services to any needs we are made aware of within our church and/or community. Helping Hands is a perfect name for this ministry as we are able to meet various basic needs for individuals and families.
