Garden Ministry
Our Garden Ministry is back up and rolling most Saturday mornings. The ministry began in 2017 with the purpose of growing vegetables to donate to those in need in Manteno, Bourbonnais, Bradley, and Kankakee. Volunteers aged 3 and up are needed. There are many different jobs to volunteer for - tending the garden, harvesting, and driving produce to local food pantries. Contact the office or Nick Boros to get added to their Facebook Messenger group and get current information on when they are working and if it's just too muddy to work.

Stellar Vacation Bible School Donation Board
It's the official start of summer here at Manteno Church of the Nazarene. The VBS donation board is up! This summer, "we will launch kids on a cosmic quest where they’ll have a blast shining Jesus’ light to the world. Stellar VBS rockets kids on an out-of-this-world adventure that’s light years of faith-building fun." (Direct quote - even I have trouble with that many puns.) In the lobby, grab an astronaut (or a whole crew). It will either be something easy to get local, have a convenient Amazon qr code, or be something we just need to borrow. Please have your donation back to the church by May 21. Blast off!
