Lafayette-Orinda Presbyterian Church held its eighth annual ONE Sunday, a day of service on Feb. 22. Over 400 people of all ages participated throughout Contra Costa County. The day of service included painting, cleaning, assembling toiletry kits for the homeless, deep cleaning a commercial kitchen, construction and much more. Fourteen non-profit agencies including ANKA, Bay Area Rescue Mission, CALICO, Contra Costa Food Bank, Creek Kids, Foster A Dream, Habitat for Humanity, Las Trampas, Loaves and Fishes and Loved Twice, Monument Crisis Center, Primera Iglesia, Shelter Inc. and STAND were the recipients of the labor force that allowed them to accomplish things that might otherwise not have been addressed due to limited resources.
