Soles for Jesus

There will be a collection bin for new and gently used shoes supporting Soles for Jesus. These shoes will be donated to the people of Africa, who are in need while also helping to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Shoes are a basic luxury that we often take for granted everyday. Many of us are unaware that millions of people across our globe live barefoot lives. Please consider supporting this effort. See www.SolesForJesus.org for more information.
