    Hub Ministry Opportunity

    During this past weekend's services, you met Cassie Hammett and heard her speak about the many service opportunities at Hub Urban Ministries, an organization with a passion to reach the poor and homeless in our inner city. If you missed the services, hear what Cassie had to say here.

    The Brookwood family has an amazing opportunity to partner with the Hub at the upcoming Brookwood Street Feast. Please consider serving as an individual or as a LifeGroup, Thursday, May 28, 6pm, 619 Edwards Street. We will serve a meal and pass out resources in downtown Shreveport. Street Feast will give you an opportunity to love and serve the "least of these." To sign up for this event, email thehubministry@yahoo.com. Further information will be sent to you after you sign up. If you have any questions, email the Hub or call 469-8065.
