IHN

Interfaith Hospitality Network of Northern Kentucky is a program in our mission umbrella that allows families to stay together while receiving shelter and help during times of homelessness. It is a very structured program that allows parents to find work (if unemployed), affordable housing, and helps them get their finances in order. Our church is fortunate enough to play an important role in this program. We take a 'rotation' every 10-11 weeks at St. Joseph in Cold Spring. If you are curious or would like more information, please contact

Janie Haddix (859-802-5905, janie.haddix@gmail.com) or one of our dedicated volunteers. It's a family-friendly, casual, SAFE environment that nurtures our volunteers as much as it does the families which we are helping.

                                                A BIG White Gift Program THANK YOU!

   Did you know that our church helps more families with our White Gift Program than most other churches in the area, even the larger ones?

   It’s true!  Of course. we have a lot of help from Cline and Crossroads Elementary School’s food drives, Meijer, Kings and Queens, and our own Women’s Guild plus all of you.  While we did not help as many families or children this year compared to previous years, and we did have symbols left on the pew that were not picked up, we still provided gifts for 12 families and 32 children and food for 13 families and    several folks who live at Turfway Race Course in the off season of racing.  God is smiling a BIG smile!

   A special thank you goes to Kriste Swanson for providing the families for us to help and to the Mission Board—Mindy Connell, Brenda Steelman, Kathy VonStrohe, and new members Julie Weber and Karen Zimmerman—for their leadership and numerous hours of work.  Of course, we have a host of angels helping us put it all together:  all of the children at Cline and Crossroads who bring in food, Chad and Shannon Abbott, Shirley Baldinger, Cammy Bihl, Kristopher Chalk, Lewis Connell, Abby Davis, Brandon Hart, Helen Mason, Cameron, Jessica, Kayla and Leah McDonald, Jocelyn Meyer, Jim Miller, Brenda Steelman,    Margie and Stu Stormer, Kristi Swanson, Audrey, Curt, and Karey Thomas, Susan Voelker, Kathy VonStrohe, Julie Weber, Ann Windgassen, and Karen Zimmerman (hope we didn’t miss anyone).  These folks help pick up the many boxes of food from the elementary schools, sort the food, shop for still needed food, pack the boxes, shop for gifts, wrap a few presents, sort the many White Gifts from the congregation, and help to take the food and gifts to the cars of our families.  We were able to add a tin of cookies from the Cookie Walk for each family and the folks at the race track too.

   Our Cookie Walk this year brought in about $950, which will help us reach out to even more folks throughout the year.  We did have a little more community support this year.  Hopefully, word of mouth about our program will help the Cookie Walk to grow every year. 

   Thanks to all of you for working hard and digging deep in your pockets to help so many people enjoy the Christmas season and beyond.

Charlene Rogers and the Mission Board

Dear Charlene Rogers, Committee, Church Members 

Thank you for your contributions to the Campbell County Family Resource Center this past holiday season.  The center, which serves Cline and Crossroads families, had requests from 41 families and no one was turned away. 

Because of you/your group we were able to fill the needs of 105 children!!! We could not do our work at the center if it were not for the support from our community.  Thank you again for your help and a Happy New Year to you all!

 Sincerely, 

Kriste Swanson
