Special Needs
Our Special Needs ministry, Loving HANDS is a respite service provided twice a month for 3 hours for families who have children with special physical, intellectual, behavioral or emotional needs. Parents enjoy a night off and we get a chance to love on your child and share with them how amazing they are and how much they are loved – by God and by us!

About Loving Hands
Loving HANDS provides a fun, safe evening out for families with children that have special physical, intellectual, behavioral or emotional needs and their siblings. At Loving HANDS, kids of all ages enjoy an evening of fun, including a bounce house, ball pit, Wii and PS4 stations and snack. Each child is paired up with a trained volunteer for the evening.
Loving HANDS Prime provides respite for families who have children ages 18 and up who have physical or intellectual special needs. This program is perfect for the individual who would enjoy a more adult-like mature atmosphere. The evening includes music, dancing, free time and fellowship plus group activities such as games, karaoke, skits, music lessons, crafts, baking, etc.
Both events are held monthly while parents and caregivers get a well deserved break. All special dietary concerns are accommodated including gluten, casein and artificial dyes.

2022 Red Carpet Drive-Thru Celebration
Friday, February 11, 2022
6:00 pm – 8:00 pmGreenville Elementary School
60 Fredonia Rd. Greenville, PA 16125
Dear Night to Shine Guests,
We hope you are staying safe and well! We know that this has been another strange year in so many ways. Please know that we have been thinking about you as we are preparing for our Night to Shine 2022.
Because of the precautions that we need to follow, the Tim Tebow Foundation has decided that there is no safe way to have an in-person dance again this year. Please know that this is. a decision that was very difficult and is very sad for all of us.
But… your health and safety are so important to us and we would never want to put you at risk.
Though nothing can take the place of spending time with you, we still will be celebrating “YOU” but in a very different way and we are so excited!! We will, once again, have a Red Carpet Drive-Thru Celebration held on Friday, February 11th, 2022 from 6-8pm at the Greenville Elementary School, 60 Fredonia Rd. Greenville. Just follow the signs into the parking lot and we will take care of the rest.
We would like to invite you to drive-thru Christmas lights and paparazzi with lots of cheers and love and… we have a special gift for everyone!
To RSVP, submit this form or call 724-589-5433. Please also feel free to give us a call or send a message if you have any questions.
I look forward to hearing from you!! I am sure hoping to see you on February 11th!!
Blessings!
Mrs. Denise Bell
Night to Shine Coordinator
