New Covenant Bible Church Blesses His Hands on Serve Day!

This past Saturday, an amazing team from New Covenant Bible Church went above and beyond to care for His Hands.

They cleaned, pulled weeds, refreshed our grounds, and even cleaned the air conditioner cages behind the building. Their hard work helps create a welcoming and dignified environment for every patient who comes through our doors.

We are deeply grateful for their servant hearts and faithful support of our mission. God is so good!

Please join us in thanking this incredible team!
