Peoria Neighborhood Pride Ministry Opportunity

March 6, 2010

We have a great opportunity to serve our community of Peoria on Saturday, March 6th, from 7:00 am-12:00pm. We have been asked by the Planning and Community Development Department of the City of Peoria to help with their “Neighborhood Pride” program; a program intended to assist community members with neighborhood beautification—landscaping, painting, building, repair, etc.

This service opportunity will take place in the community around Beryl Street, west of 71st Avenue (Beryl is 4 blocks south of Peoria Avenue off of 71st Avenue). Snacks and drinks will be provided throughout our service. Additionally, they welcome our children to be a part of this service! Kids are welcome!

The city plans on having 13 residences needing service in this area, so the more people to serve the better.

If you are interested in serving with this event, please contact Wade Myers to let him know that you would be willing to assist.

May we continue to further God’s mission throughout our community!

Location: Beryl Street, west of 71st Avenue - Beryl is 4 block south of Peoria Avenue off of 71st Avenue

Time: We would like to have the volunteers there and ready to start by 7:00 a.m.

Parking: There is a park just south of Ira A. Murphy Elementary School which is located on North Ave and 72nd Ave. Beryl Avenue is just to the east and south of the school. There is parking along 72nd Avenue and also in the parking lot of the park which is on the corner of Cheryl Dr. and 73rd Avenue.

Misc. Information: All materials are supplied. Light refreshments and a Neighborhood Pride T-Shirt is provided as a thank you for your generous donation of time.
