Help Restock the Food Pantry's Shelves What: The shelves in the foyer of the sanctuary are empty. So are many of the shelves at United Christian Ministries. How: Go shopping; bring your offering of food; and go feed your family knowing you're also giving to those in need. During the next 4 Sundays, we will have a real/actual/literal set of empty shelves at church that we want you to help us fill. Bring in non-perishable foods. Anything you'd eat yourself or serve to your family. Let's make the shelves full of good things, hopeful things, rather than standing there empty and sad. We'll let the food accumulate each week so we can all know and see how much progress we're making. By the way, you don't have to wait until Sunday. The shelves are there now, and will be everyday this month. |

Used Children's Books Needed In Collaboration with: Beta Lambda, the local
chapter of Alpha Delta Kappa What: You can help by donating gently used books for children ages birth to twelve years. A collection box for books has been placed in the vestibule. This collection will continue through the month of October. Why: When children are placed in foster care because of abuse or neglect, they take few items with them. Often foster families do not have age-appropriate books for the children coming into their homes. The used books collected will help establish a library for Jackson County children in foster care. More Information: If you have questions concerning this project, please contact Dianne Yount or Pam Martin. |
