A Helping Hand
HSS is dedicated to providing support and encouragement without shame or judgement in times of crisis. We are committed to meeting the needs of our community. Whether you are looking for counseling, support groups, or in need of a visit or a meal, our ministry is here to ensure no one is left on their own.
We offer a limited financial fund, made available by application to anyone struggling financially due to unforeseen circumstances. Our funds are granted as a gift, and repayment is not expected. However, we encourage you to bless someone else in the future with your gift of volunteering. We have plenty of opportunities for you to pay it forward. We are all blessed to be a blessing!
