First Baptist and Cornerstone are preparing to launch a mentoring partnership for which a grant has just been received.  Among the plans are events in which congregational and community resource persons will provide instruction for a wide range of topics for families who will soon step out into full independence.  A direct partnership between families at Cornerstone and individual families at First Baptist is also in the works.

We help fund and staff this city-wide effort to provide needed clothing for struggling families.  The Clothing Bank also provides new clothing for children at the beginning of each school year, and works to ensure every child has a warm, winter coat.
