At Mt. Olivet we believe that we are gathered together as church to be sent out into the world.
We strive to be out in our community helping others and providing service in whatever way we can. Sleep Space There is nothing more important for a growing child than a good night's sleep. With that in mind we have set out to ensure that every child in Perry has a comfortable and warm place to sleep. To that end we have created the Sleep Space. This is a place where anyone can come to get bedding, blankets, and pillows. In some situations we also provide beds themselves. Please contact the church if you are in need of any of the above. We would love to help. Food Pantry We are strong supporters of our local food pantry. A shopping cart is always available to collect food items for the Perry Food Pantry. Items may be dropped off at any time and are usually delivered the last week of each month. Thanks for helping those in need! Habitat For Humanity We are heavily involved with the Dallas County chapter of Habitat for Humanity. Pastor Jeremy serves on the steering committee and many of our members have volunteered for various Habitat projects. It is an amazing way for us to live out our faith and help others in our community. World Mission The Children's Offering received during worship is used to help causes all over the world. Examples of gifts given include food, livestock & fish, medical supplies, and education. They recently sent $135 to provide a trio of piglets (we hope Iowa-born and bred!) to families in Indonesia. Thanks kids! |
