Olney Help

Dear Oakdale Church Community:

Olney HELP would like to thank you for your donation food and groceries to their pantry. There is a box labeled for Olney Help in the donation/mail room just to the right as you enter the back of the sanctuary at Oakdale. Any donations can be left there. Ask any of our ushers or greeters if you need help.

In this time of increased uncertainty and demand, Olney HELP continues to deliver food and provide financial assistance to those in need, with some modifications to keep our clients and volunteers safe.
