Church Helps Relocated Hurricane Victims

College Grove United Methodist Church - CGUMC Youth and the Hope Family
We want the church to know we continue serving our local community, both the old and new residents. We have cared for local families when personal needs have arisen. We have also helped a new family that have settled here from New Orleans, The 9 member Hope Family, living at 6820 Edwards Grove Rd, College Grove, TN 37046.

On September 18th. the church held a pounding!! We shared with the family they would not be hurt (physically), this is an old tradition for new families moving into our area. Every member of the church was asked to bring a product either (food or paper products) to share with this family. We were sucessfull in overwhelming them with generosity!
