College Church provides a work crew for the "F.A.C.E.S." program, a local food pantry that currently dispenses over 400 bags of
groceries each Saturday morning. College Church is responsible for all 5th Saturdays of the year, and other times as needed. This is a
real opportunity for fellowship in addition to providing a needed community service. Typically there is a very diverse group of church
volunteers, ranging from pre-schoolers to those well into retirement, and members of the College Church family often bring friends
F.A.C.E.S. is currently located in the old Wilson Oil Co. building on North Street in Farmville. For information regarding
the time and date of the next "F.A.C.E.S." workday, check the announcement section on the web site home page, or contact the
church office.

"Faith by itself, if it has no works, is dead...
Show me your faith apart from your works,
and I by my works will show you
my faith."
