Youth Head to New York City!


On February 18, 14 high school students and six adults will head to New York City to participate in Midnight Run.

Midnight Run is a volunteer organization dedicated to finding common ground between the housed and the homeless. In over 1,000 relief missions per year, Midnight Run volunteers from churches, synagogues, schools and other civic groups distribute food, clothing, blankets and personal care items to the homeless poor on the streets of New York City. The late-night relief efforts create a forum for trust, sharing, understanding and affection. That human exchange, rather than the exchange of goods, is the essence of the Midnight Run mission.”

The youth will be hosted by First Presbyterian Church and will worship with Jon Walton’s congregation on Sunday morning before returning home. Please keep the group in your thoughts and prayers as they share Christ’s love in New York City.
