FISH Hospitality Program

Now that the dust has settled and the electricity has been returned, the cave is starting to be transformed to a warm and welcoming place, and that means the return of the FISH Hospitality program to BBPC. FISH hospitality will return to BBPC on December 16 after a 1 year hiatus. As we begin to prepare for our guests return we are looking for donations to replace items that where donated to the Red Cross shelter in April, or lost during construction. We currently have a need for twin size blankets and sheet sets, as well as bath towels and washcloths. Additionally, we are looking for 2 or 3 small table lamps and an iron for ironing clothes. These can be gently used or new items. you have items that you would like to donate please see Mark Huddell, Dave DePierro, Diane Padula, or Tammy Newbold, or drop them off in our donation box in the cave.

We need volunteers to sleep over several evenings, and most of our evening hosting shifts (either 5PM to 7:30PM or 7:30PM to 10:00PM) are still available. A benefit to hosting from 5 to 7:30 is the chance to join in a wonderful meal provided by your fellow congregants. The evening shift gives you the chance to enjoy the new cave with our guests.
