CONNECTIONS
SPREAD HOPE NOW
We partner directly with a local non-profit here in Sikeston called Spread Hope Now. The mission of SHN is "to identify the needs of those in crisis and mobilize people to meet them, motivated by the love of Jesus Christ."
Through SHN we participate in Feed My Starving Children, School Fest, Radical Christmas, Love Your Neighbor Projects, and more.
SHN is a wonderful resource to help us accomplish our goal of serving those around us locally as Jesus' hands and feet. We invite you to join with us in this partnership!

SEMO FOOD BANK
"Connecting our neighbors in need with food, support and hope." This fits right into who we are and what we are about here at Community Church. So each month we collect various food items to donate to the food bank to help them in their efforts to provide for those in need. We also look for opportunities to volunteer at the Food Bank whenever possible.
COMMUNITY RESOURCES
Though we don't have the resources to meet the needs of SO many people in our community, we love that we can point people to other churches and organizations who can. The following information is being provided as a quick, though not comprehensive, list of places you can find assistance for your particular needs.
