volunteering to serve a meal to the
poor.

worship service that addresses the problem of aid for those in hard
times. This year it will be held at The ROCK CHURCH, 820
West 9th Street, here in Laurel– 7:00 p.m. on Sunday Nov. 18th.
It is sponsored by the Laurel Ministerial Association. Pastor Greg

come together and thank God as a community. A free will
offering is always taken to aid transients.
