Yarn Ministry still needs the congregation’s assistance
We are still collecting winter clothing articles for the PADS Ministry. Please keep this in mind as you are cleaning out your closets. Donations of hand or machine made (store bought) scarves, hats, gloves, and mittens for men, women and children are welcome. Coats and jackets are particularly needed, as well as socks. Donated items, if not new, should be clean and only gently used. Collection bins are located in the undercroft and at the office entrance. There is a PADS collection bin located in the undercroft as well. Deposit items in any of the containers. The next collection date is January 31st.

No Longer Collecting Plastic Grocery Bags
A big thank you to everyone who brought in plastic grocery bags! We are not looking for additional donations at this time, but those that have been collected will be sorted by the youth group and used to produce mats for individuals who are homeless.
