Breakfast Club

We are excited about a new project that is getting started – the BREAKFAST CLUB. Recognizing that Saturday morning is an area need for the homeless, we offer coffee, breakfast, and a time of serving, relating, and sharing from the Bible beginning at 7:30 am every Saturday.

Two winter shelters in Athens are operated by local Christian ministrires - "The Bigger Vision" and "Walk on Water." Dedicated volunteers who give of their time to supervise shelter operations seven days a week. Approximately fifty men and women use these shelters on any given winter night.

Since shelters close at 7:00 am, the clients go out into the city during the day. Social service agencies and businesses are open during the week, and churches are open on Sunday, but on Saturday, early in the morning, most facilities are closed. We invite interested persons to join us for the "Breakfast Club," an opportunity to serve and spend time with those who have this particular need.

Coffee - 7:30; Breakfast - 8:00; Time of sharing - 8:30
