During the holiday season we "adopted" five families in Ann Arbor, contacted through the Michigan Department of Human Services. This service project allowed us to put our faith into action and get involved in the community. The funds used for this program were raised through our U of M football parking program.

On a spring Saturday in April, volunteers joined together all across Ann Arbor to rake, paint, clean, repair and generally help to spruce up the homes of those in need. More than twenty-five members of our church family met at the home of our own Alice Chapple to spend the day enjoying each other's fellowship while working hard to surprise Alice with a few home improvements!
