Power Tour 2016

ROPP is grateful for the chance to visit the vibrant island nation of Jamaica, the very week it celebrated its 54th year of independence! Power Tour 2016 was a success and we are thankful to all who helped make it happen!

Let's help our fundraiser GROW!!

Clothing Drive #1: DONE!

ROPP-ites had a great time hustling and fellowshipping at our first "Let it Go!" Clothing and Household donation drive. We had a goal of 1000 lbs in donations. We collected 970 lbs. Almost there! Special thanks to the great folks at SAVERS who offer this awesome fundraising opportunity, and do such great work in the community.
We have a goal of 2000 lbs for the next drive, April 3, 2016. Tell your family and friends to gather their gently used items so we can have an even better turnout next time!
