Mission Muffins
As part of Central Union Mission's Ready2Cook program, employees learn baking, retail, and business skills that help make them ready for the job market. The Mission believes they can replace dependence ("Will Work for Food") with responsibility ("Will Work for My Future"), pairing the employee's potential with his determination to succeed. Every time you purchase one of their delicious products, you are helping to train and equip a homeless or employment-challenged individual to return to society.
Place your order at ibc.church/missionmuffins by May 31. Orders and onsite sales will be available in the Atrium after the 9:00 service on June 4.
For June, place orders by June 28 for onsite delivery July 2.
