We were able to help Nebraska Family Council finish interior work. Their house located at 11th & E will be a House of Prayer and they are praying that their presence in the neighborhood would really make an impact. For February's SERVE Saturday, we will be partnering with them to host a brunch for the neighborhood. This is possible because we have helped them get the house ready. <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_PIsdSiu024I/R6IFQevX0SI/AAAAAAAAAAg/p08kFfl2AI8/s1600-h/ServeSaturday_Jan.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_PIsdSiu024I/R6IFQevX0SI/AAAAAAAAAAg/p08kFfl2AI8/s200/ServeSaturday_Jan.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5161693903607812386" /></a>So, thank you to the many volunteers who have cleaned, painted, stained, laid tile and so much more! You can still volunteer for <a href="http://www.cplace.org/outreach/local/servesaturday.html">SERVE Saturday on February 9</a> and be a part of the neighborhood brunch.<br /><br />During January's SERVE Saturday, we also painted two rooms for a woman referred to us by the F Street Community Center. Florene was a delight and really appreciated the help members of Christ's Place offered to her free of charge.<br /><br />Monthly, we are serving single moms and widows because a little love goes a long way. In January, people served women by doing some small fix it projects in their homes. In February, we're offering a morning of free babysitting at Christ's Place. <a href="http://www.cplace.org/outreach/local/servesaturday.html">To sign up to serve or nominate a mom, click here.</a>Christ's Placehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01733318607148757293noreply@blogger.com
