The College Ministry students and volunteers spent a Monday afternoon serving hot cider, popcorn, and other desserts for students on the corner of Jefferson and Dubuque street.

The Garden of Grace had a great first year. They provided over 140 pounds of fresh produce to area food banks. They involved people of all ages, and formed friendships around the garden, as we celebrated God’s gift of nourishing food. Thank you to everyone who helped to make this first year a great success!
