Your Mission & Service Ministry Team distributed Mission funds in June 2025 as follows:

  • $1,000.00 to The Storehouse: One of New Mexico’s largest food pantries. Their mission is fighting hunger in our community. They offer FREE groceries to people in need. Many families fall in a gap they refer to as the ‘working poor.’ They earn too much to get SNAP (formerly food stamps), but a major car repair, medical bill, or reduced hours at work can have them wondering where their next meal might come from. storehousenm.org

  • $1,000.00 to Locker #505: Clothing kids with confidence! $525 will clothe a child for the entire year. This means 3 visits to Locker #505 (fall, winter, spring). A personal shopper helps student select clothes the students prefer, that fit the best. Students receive 5 days of school appropriate clothing as well as school supplies and hygiene items. Clothing donations and monetary donations make this all possible. locker505.org
