Opportunities For Youth Groups

This youth group participated in a Service and Mission Team in May 2007. They worked for two hours at our Hope Bargain Center, ate at Hope Café, heard a presentation on homelessness, tour our Bethel Mission facility and delivered food and encouragement to several tent camps. Here they are standing in the center of one of the camps.

The youth group from Asbury United Methodist Church in Webster City conducted a paper drive for Hope Family Center.  Their donation helps us to stretch our operating budget and enables us to direct dollars to other areas of need.  This group also volunteered for 3 hours at our Community Outreach Center located in the Hope Bargain Center.

Two youth groups combine on a SERVICE AND MISSION DAY delivering bags of food.
