BYKOTA is Emmanuel’s service organization whose primary purpose is to help meet needs within the church body though we reach beyond that. BYKOTA stands for “Be Ye Kind One to Another.” Some of the ways we have reached out to members of our congregation include providing meals to our new mothers and to those recovering from surgery. We provide rides for members to church services or to a doctor appointment. Our food pantry is a help to those who need occasional assistance. BYKOTA tries to assist our bereaved families as well.
Projects vary year to year, but here is a sampling:
- BYKOTA Valentines
- Operation Christmas Child
- A Sunday Breakfast Mission project
- A Door of Hope Baby Shower
- Graduation reception
