During our Shared Offering every week, we collect items for a local agency.

For our service offering this February at Thoreau, we will be collecting dental hygiene items for children this month. All items will go to Common Threads, the Lamar School District program to help students from low-income families. You can either bring your items to church on Sunday or purchase via the link below.

We share half of our Sunday Offering with a community partner.

In February, our Sunday offerings will be shared with the Literacy Council of Fort Bend County. According to a recent survey, approximately 19 percent of Fort Bend County residents lack the reading and writing skills to manage daily living tasks that we encounter every day. That’s a huge handicap, and the Literacy Council of Fort Bend is working hard to improve lives, families and the community through their literacy classes and programs.

Every few months, Thoreau offers a “Service after the Service” for the entire community to come together for a hands-on project.

Join us in February as we decorate sacks for Lunches of Love. They like to pack the lunches in cheerful lunch bags for the kids. Grab some food and share fellowship while helping a local charity.
