Notice the Succoth Booth in the Missions and Ministry area. What is a succoth booth? It is a prayer booth that Jewish individuals use during this current holy period of Succoth. The sides are made of wood and the top is a thatched roof, tree limbs, branches of bushes, etc. This way you can look up at the heavens and be connected to God as you pray. Please consider donating food to St. Vincent DePaul, for there are many within our community who are displaced and in need of food! When you donate, please offer a prayer that it will feed hungry stomachs, fill hurting hearts with love, and touch spirits with God’s Presence! Thank You!

If you would like to help out with food for Community Kitchen, there is a table next to the Succoth booth for that help! These gifts can be dropped in at the church office, Monday - Thursday, 9am-1pm, or can be brought on Sunday morning and placed on the Missions collection table or Haitian collection table [with the Succoth Booth,] in the Fellowship Hall.

Please also see the Missions information below, as well as the need for help at Open Hands Free Store. Thank you for answering Jesus’ call. Thank you for your generosity!

Do You Wish to Do Hands-on Work at the Open Hands-Free Pantry?

The Open Hands-Free Pantry is in the Seventh-Day Adventist Church, 151 S Bird Road, Springfield. The pantry hours are Tuesdays, 10:00am-noon & Thursdays, 2:00pm- 4:00pm.

Northridge Church has been involved in this ministry since it began in 2008 as the Springfield Initiative. Currently Northridge Church volunteers help in the pantry packing food boxes, and three Northridge Church members serve on the Open Hands Pantry board of directors.

As we work through the Open Hands Pantry we can answer Jesus’ mandate to feed the hungry.
