Childcare

Free
babysitting is available during our market and meeting
times. We encourage Moms to use this service so they can
pay full attention to the speaker and get a little "mommy
break". All workers in our nursery have taken our
required safety class.

Can
You Help Us? |
As
an all volunteer group, we are always in need of donations of
time, baby items, and financial support. We have a wish list from the
Moms of some of the baby items that they could use. There
is a Donation Box available on the 2nd Sunday of each month in
the ministry hallway. Your gift will help to make a
difference in the lives of many mothers and their children both
physically and eternally.

can volunteer or donate to Open Hands, contact Kelly Carter at 913-908-8917. |
