Art Sales Support Outreach Services for Homeless and Jobless




Building Bridges of Compassion and Care at Fellowship Hall

Members of the Federated Church in Chagrin Falls, Ohio contribute portions of artwork,  textile and candy making sales to support Ohio City Power programs and services hosted at sister facility, St. Paul's Community Church and Outreach. St. Paul's serves the Ohio City neighborhood and Cleveland, Ohio vicinity.

From a recent Federated Church newsletter post:
"Lisa Braun, Executive Director of Ohio City Power, a program benefiting the homeless and jobless of the neighborhood of our sister church St. Paul's Community Church, is proud to offer many gifts designed by members of Federated.  
Most recently local artists, Mary Ann Boysen and Mary Hobbs have donated their creations for sale.  
A portion of the proceeds pays for bus tickets, food and clothing for job skills workshops.  
You can find Lisa and other volunteers after both services in Fellowship Hall.  
Hough Bakery chocolates, tie-dye items, beautifully knitted scarves and now custom pins and note cards will be available.   
Thank you to the many loving members of Federated for donating their time and talents to those less fortunate.
