Members of the Sycamore Ward and DeKalb Ward (or congregation) of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints recently held a “Day of Service” at two locations in town, Safe Passage and Oaklawn Cemetery on North First Street.

The Sycamore Ward delivered and spread mulch around the buildings at Safe Passage. They also provided a deep cleaning of the office, children’s center and counseling areas. More than 50 adults and youth participated in the event.

Church members have cleaned these areas weekly for the past three years but decided to gather more members to do a deep cleaning. The church joins other churches and service organizations that have provided Safe Passage with various maintenance projects in the past.
