Church & Society has changed their February Lunch & Learn to a Disaster Relief Kit Day.

All are welcome to help.

When? 12:15pm, following the Festive Service

Where? Fellowship Hall

Will there still be lunch? Yes! There will be free pizza to anyone and everyone who is able to pitch in.

How else can I help?

We are appealing for everyone’s help to stockpile as many of the necessary supplies as possible by Feb. 16.
We also hope to assemble up to 50 personal hygiene kits.

Your donations are needed! Every contribution helps, regardless of size.

We have established two “wish lists” of all needed supplies at Walmart.com.

When you place orders, the list will be adjusted to reflect how much is still needed. This will help to organize our purchases to avoid duplicate buying of some items and shortages of others.
