Montgomery Baptist Association Family Promise Week
November 9-16th
Eastdale Baptist Church
Montgomery Baptist Association will be hosting homeless families at Eastdale Baptist Church in November. We are partnering with Family Promise Ministry of Montgomery to provide a weeks housing and meals for families in their program. Family Promise is a non-profit, non-denominational, nationwide ministry that helps homeless families get on their feet through mentoring. The program is from 6-12 weeks. Churches in Montgomery provide housing at their churches 4 times a year for one week at a time. I am proud to have our Association participate in this ministry of long term solutions.

If you think your church would like to sponsor meal, contact me at 271-6794 or email me at lrose@mgmbaptist.org This would entail, bringing the meal cooked to the church, providing drinks, etc and a few folks staying for the meal to visit with the families. There will be no more than 14 individuals staying at Eastdale that week.
