Seasonal Sharing and Church Potluck

 2017 Seasonal Sharing

 “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.”

1 Corinthians 1:3-4

Please join us on Sunday, December 17th at 11:30 for an afternoon of sharing and fellowship.  We encourage everyone to participate, whether they are able to donate an item below or just their time and love. Sign up for the Potluck will be in the foyer.

Coats for Kids:

What: Please bring new, warm winter coats, jackets and mittens for children ages 5-10.

Cards for Crisis:

Why: Throughout the year the church is approached by families in need of the most basic things such as food to eat and gas to drive to work.

What: Please bring gift cards for groceries and gas in $25 increments.

Gifts for DARE:

Why: Many of us our blessed to be surrounded by family and people who love and care about us.  We have an opportunity this year to share our blessings with foster children who either do not have families or are unable to live with their families.

What: A sign-up sheet will be located in the foyer.  A stocking will be provided to you that will include a child’s first name, gender and age.  Please purchase a gift that would be appropriate for the age (within $20).  Please attach the name tag to the gift when dropping it off on Sunday.
