A ribbon was cut. Lives will be changed.The official launch of Joining Hands Community Mission was held on Wednesday, October 7, 2009, with a ribbon cutting and opening ceremony. Our RedX praise band started playing at 8:00 am, followed by a ceremony and blessing attended by many of our volunteers as well as city and county leaders and members of the faith community. Speakers included Tim Marks and Rev. Morris Hintzmann from Metropolitan Ministries, Port Richey Mayor Richard Rober, Pasco County Commissioner Pat Mulieri, and our CEO and Pastor, Rev. Dan Campbell. Metropolitan Ministries simultaneously launched their Compassion in Action initiative by bringing a truck filled with 100 food boxes to be distributed to registered families with children that morning.
