to provide tree removal. Equipment and transportation vehicles are
maintained at the church. Trips, which range up to one week, also
include local weekend work. Contact Paul Givens at (615) 893-3455.
Each year, team members purchase, wrap, and deliver
Christmas presents to students in need at Red Bird School in Beverly, KY.
