the Rev. Darrell Bare of Washington Baptist Church and the Rev. Jennings Hobson III of Trinity Episcopal Church.

The Rev. Bare commended Social Services for the “insight to recognize this need for a program that is very important to Rappahannock County. It enables people to maintain the dignity of their lives, and also to remain in Rappahannock County.”

He added that part of the mission of a church is its ministry to the community, “and to become involved as well. When we look around and see the need of our friends and neighbors; people who can stay with just a little bit of help — we want to see the county at large, and the churches specifically, get behind it.”

With the state government in Richmond warning that money will likely become even tighter, the Rev. Bare added, “we have to take care of our own.”

Individuals or groups interested in becoming involved in the CARE program should contact Mrs. Bowen at the Department of Social Services (703-675-3313).
