Alms Sunday: The Parenting Place, both services

Sunday, March 22, 2026
We welcome The Parenting Place for our March 22 Alms Sunday
Since 1981, The Parenting Place has been strengthening our community by working alongside families who are navigating the challenges and wonders of parenting, and service providers and business leaders who want to incorporate trauma-responsive practices into their lives and work. In 2025, they worked with 197 parents/caregivers of 423 children in parenting classes and 1:1 Parent Aide visits. Trauma-informed trainings were also offered to 194 individuals from businesses and nonprofits. And 133 foster and program children received gifts through the Holiday Giving Tree at Donation Warehouse. As we look ahead to April as Child Abuse Prevention Month, let's learn from the Parenting Place about ways to engage with their strengthening and prevention efforts. Visit parentingplace.net for an overview of programs and initiatives, and for April prevention advocacy opportunities as they are posted. A special offering will be taken during worship on March 22, or you can give via Pushpay or online here. Thank you for participating!
