SHP Bed Build Event
Good News! We are out of the weather this time!!
During Build Days, we like to make the most of our time for efficiency’s sake, but we also like everyone to have fun! Volunteers age 12+ help build our beds, so the entire process is very family friendly and provides a great experience for many ages.
Experienced volunteers will teach you the different stages of the construction process and then assign you to a station. Experiencing the buzz, energy, and excitement of dozens of volunteers throughout all the stations working side-by-side is super fun. And at the end of the event, what was once a giant pile of lumber is now components that SHP can use to get a local child off the floor and into a bed of their very own!

Blue Christmas
For some, the Christmas season is challenging. Perhaps you are grieving the loss of a loved one and this is the first Christmas where they will not be present around the dinner table. Or maybe this season of joy has been interrupted by illness, a difficult prognosis, or financial stress. Whatever may have you feeling 'blue' this Christmas, our Blue Christmas service is a sacred space to bring it all before Jesus. All are welcome to join us at this solemn service of prayer and healing
