Community Feast

We have been serving nutritious meals to our neighbors every Sunday since 1984! Doing what we can opens the door for God to do much more.

Our Community Feast serves a free, delicious, nutritious dinner to about 100 of our neighbors in need in Overdier Hall located on our 3rd floor. All who come are welcome and will be fed.

We open our doors at 4:00 p.m. and serve dinner until 6:00 p.m.

Mary Crane’s Center

For over 100 years, Mary Crane Center has been dedicated to the comprehensive early development of children and to supporting their families through a variety of services. Our goal is to provide quality education in a safe and diverse environment and to strengthen the bonds between children and their families. Throughout its history, Mary Crane Center has grown in order to meet the changing needs of the families we serve. Our dynamic teaching methods encourage each child to bring his or her individuality and experiences into the classroom. By identifying a child’s likes, dislikes, struggles, and strengths, teachers can enhance each child’s personal education and help them to develop the life skills they need to achieve his or her goals.
