Your generosity matters to Domus!

The Christ Church Spring Bike Drive was a huge success.  Thanks to you, Christ Church collected over 50 bicycles for the Domus Work & Learn program.  The value of bikes donated exceeded $10,000; more importantly, you enabled Domus to continue to train eager students.  One of the Domus instructors reported, “Because of your generous donations, you given the gift of learning, and hands-on experience, to the youth in our community, and you have equipped 35 young adults with affordable transportation." 

The Christ Church Outreach Ministry thanks everyone who participated in the drive and the families who donated!

Annual Picnic at the Beach

Greenwich Point


This Outreach sponsored summer party with families from Inspirica is an amazing experience with lots of joy and merriment. The fun starts at the second concession stand. Bring a blanket, some towels, and a bathing suit, and join in the seaside play. After everyone is thoroughly salty and sandy, we move to the clam bake area for a burger and hot dog barbecue and games. We’re finished by 8:30 pm.

Interested in helping out? We can always use another salad, side dish or drink, or just come and play with the kids! For more information, contact Randy Wolf, randallwofl@optonline.net.
