COVID-19 Update

 

There is no higher priority at the Sparrow’s Nest than the safety and well-being of our clients, staff and volunteers. As news on the coronavirus continues to evolve, the safety of you and your families is our top priority. We’re checking with the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), local health and government agencies for the latest updates and guidance on how to prevent the transmission of COVID-19.

 

We have reopened services with social distancing measures in place.

Please continue to partner with us through prayer as we continue to make decisions to best serve our community. 

We provide a variety of programs to help our brothers and sisters in this community. If you would like more information, contact us!
