CROP is an acronym for Communities Responding to Overcome poverty. One-quarter of the total amount we collect as a church is returned to us to help fight hunger locally. A Missions Committee member will be seated at a table in the Hub each Sunday during October to hand out pledge envelopes.

A limited number of CROP Walk t-shirts will be on sale for $10 each.

If you can't walk, make a donation to a church member who can. Even one dollar can make a difference.

5. Teen Halloween Costume Contest Show off your Halloween costume a few days early at the Durham Public Library Teen Costume Party! There will be food, music, games, and more!  Vote on your favorite costumes at the party and winners will get gift certificates to local businesses.
