Grace Lutheran Church has been supporting IAM since its humble beginnings in 1984. IAM’s provision of crisis services involves a number of Grace volunteers who lend a helping hand to our struggling neighbors. Canned food provides the foundation for feeding our neighbors in need, but providing fresh vegetables and produce are also needed. Please consider a financial donation to support this nutrition based initiative or pick up a grocery bag in the lobby with a “shopping wish list”.

The Blood Connection allows healthy individuals from the age of 16 to 100+ years who weigh at least 110 pounds to donate. Donors need to eat well several days before giving blood and eat a good meal before coming to donate. All blood collected from these blood drives stays local and will go to area hospitals.

It is so important for Grace to continue supporting the Rescue Mission food drive. Because of the faithful and generous support of Grace Lutheran Church those struggling with alcohol and drug addictions find recovery; those who need shelter from the elements have a hot shower and warm bed; those who are hungry are fed; those who have no clothing are provided with clothes; those who need medical care receive it.
