September 22-29
Asbury’s Health Ministries Team is holding a collection for the Ripple Community Center from September 22 – 29. Ripple Community is guided by a vision of Allentown as a community where everyone has a role to play, a diverse network of social support, and a connection to the place they call home. Their programs serve over 150 Allentown residents, including people experiencing homelessness or housing instability, people who are socially isolated, people living with significant histories of trauma and mental illness, and the working poor. For our neighbors living with challenges like these, Ripple Community is a source of friendship, support, and community.
