A Child Collects Easter Eggs during Saturday's Easter Egg Hunt

For many of us when we think of Easter we think of family, Easter dinner, a visit from the Easter Bunny and lots of candy.  Sadly, many of our clients at the Social Service Center are without family and resources to enjoy holiday’s such as Easter.

Last Saturday, April 11, Response Church came into the shelter and threw an Easter Party for the women and children living here.  Clients enjoyed an Easter Egg Hunt, petting and getting their pictures taken with a real live Easter Bunny, a few games of Musical Chairs and Simon Says (with prizes for the winners of course) and coloring Easter themed pictures.

Response Church is an urban church plant in Downtown Indianapolis that has partnered with the Social Service Center to volunteer and uplift the clients living in the shelter.  If you or your organization are interested in volunteering please contact Julia Sipes at julia_sipes@usc.salvationarmy.org.
