West Side Christian Church in Topeka started a 5th Sunday Missions Outreach on January 30. Instead of meeting for a traditional morning worship service, members and friends served the Topeka community by supporting children in foster care in Topeka.
One mission group met at the KVC office in Topeka to organize supplies, fill backpacks for children who are placed in foster care, sort food to create a small food pantry, and help with office work. Another group met at the church to fill Valentine’s goody bags and write Valentine’s notes for foster children.
The 5th Sunday Mission Outreach program is an extension of West Side’s WEAR Love vision:
“Welcoming all, Encouraging love, Accepting others, and Returning love through mission.”
