Our October Service project will help support our neighbors in need. Please consider how you can impact our community in a positive way and donate NEW socks. Donations will be collected in the lobby of NBMS from 10/19-10/30. Donations will be sent to the Western Carolina Rescue Ministries in Asheville. Last year we collected 1700 pairs of socks. We would love to see this happen again this year!
Thank you for making a difference!
