New Certification Policy for 2008

Training Sessions for ALL volunteers will begin in April.  Upon completion of this training, each volunteer will receive a certificate and completion card allowing them to volunteer at any Ministry event.  While the tangible needs of the homeless are blatantly apparent, the emotional needs are not.  Our training will equip our volunteers to better serve the homeless with not only theirs meals, but in showing great care and compassion to these displaced loved ones of our Father. 

All volunteers are required to be certified in order to serve for Thanksgiving and/or Christmas events.  Class sizes are limited, so please click here to register as soon as possible.  When you register, please specify which date you are requesting:

But don’t think these have been isolated events because Cynthia Pinckney Ministries provides help on a daily basis to the needy, hungry,  homeless, and displaced.  In 2003, the Ministry served Thanksgiving Dinner to about 200.  Between 2004 and 2007, over 1,500 Thanksgiving and Christmas meals were served to the needy in our community.
