FOOD BANK
You may notice the corner as you approach the Narthex. It is next to the coat rack and titled Food Bank. The goal is to donate food items such as soups, canned chicken, canned vegetables, peanut butter, canned tuna-fish, noodles, spaghetti sauce. One of our church members has volunteered to deliver these groceries to the Salvation Army at the end of each month. The Salvation Army then hands out these groceries to those in need.
Thank you very much for your support!
