Each week we attempt, with the Lord's help, to provide those who attend Sunday School and our worship service with a little food and their five most needed items.  Please note separate needs lists for Fish House and Children's Programs.  Your gifts are tax deductible.  Jesus Place is recognized by the IRS as a 501 (C) (3) nonprofit organization.

Can you help provide some of our current needs?
