During the month of January, Maranatha Brethren Church has been highlighting the Hope Center to their church family each Sunday.

In addition to highlighting the various ministries and programs that take place at the Hope Center, Maranatha also asked the people of the church to donate coffee and sugar for our pantry.

We are so happy to say that the people responded in such a generous way! Coffee and sugar are two very important items in our pantry, for obvious reasons! The residents and guests enjoy a nice cup of coffee each day and therefore we go through a lot of coffee each month.

It’s amazing how important something so ordinary as a fresh cup of coffee can be to a person! We are so thankful that Maranatha was able to collect so much coffee and sugar for the many people that will visit our facilities looking for a warm meal and a good cup of joe!

We are so grateful for individuals, organizations and churches like Maranatha for partnering with us to reach the least, the last and the lost. If your church, club or organization would like to highlight the Hope Center, please call our office at 301.739.1165 or email us at hagerstownrescue@verizon.net for more info.
