Angel's Place operates Christian group homes for adults with
developmental disabilities. Members of Prince of Glory have painted the facility, provided some
light building maintenance and donated needed items, such as sheets, towels,
etc..

Prince of Glory participates in the distribution of gifts of
food to several families in need. We do this once a month. Members bring food to
church, where it is assembled into packages according to the needs of each
family. We drop off the assembled packages at the families' homes.

Prince of Glory has provided workers to assist in construction
of new houses as part of the Habitat for Humanity program. These houses are
being built for deserving families who spend their own time working with us on
the project. It's a special opportunity to see the impact that a project like
this can have on people's lives. We have usually participated in this once every
other year (alternating years with Paint the Town projects).

Once a year, usually in October, Prince of Glory provides
volunteers to staff the South Oakland Homeless Shelter. The shelter is housed in
other local churches. Our volunteers spend the night, provide transportation,
prepare and serve dinner and breakfast.

Paint the Town is a program that organizes volunteers to paint
the homes of people who cannot afford to maintain their homes in this way. We
usually spend a part or all of a Saturday cleaning up, repairing, and painting a
home. We have usually participated in this once every other year (alternating
years with Habitat for Humanity projects).

Prince of Glory members cook and serve Thanksgiving Dinner to
senior citizens in the city of Clawson each year. Coordinating the preparation
of the food is a large undertaking, but, by the grace of God, everything has
come together resulting in a well attended and well received event.

Each year at our Thanksgiving Eve service, canned goods are
brought to church. The children bring the cans and boxes forward during the
service as part of our offering. The food collected is given to community
organizations to distribute to people who need it.
