1st and 4th Fridays of Each Month
The first and last Friday of every month, a team of 4 to 8 from Stanwich meet the Bridgeport Rescue Mission Mobile truck at Rodner Court in South Norwalk from 5:45 to 7:15 p.m. to assist in the passing out of food and praying over the men, women and children who visit the truck to pick up dinner.

We are returning to New Orleans this spring, so mark you calendars. Two week slots are offered: March 8-15 OR April 12-19
We will be working with Castle Rock Church in the shadow of the Superdome. Projects are still being determined but will likely include serving at an after school program at a local housing project, some minor repair and clean-up work in homes and in the community.

This is an opportunity to partner with World Vision, and Pivot Ministries and go on a trip to West Virginia in order to help some folks with home improvement projects. These homes are in Appalachia and often need repairs that not just for the comfort we enjoy but that can affect their health and well-being.
The cost is $400 and includes meals and accommodations. Contacts Mike O’Connor at ten.enilnotponull@syobgo and Paul Trefry at moc.nsmnull@yrfertluap. It is a time to bond spiritually and in fellowship with others from Stanwich and the amazing men from Pivot.
