FOOD BANK It was so heartwarming to see the kids pull that wagon down the aisle full of food. They take this very seriously, and what a lesson in sharing!
KIDS, thanks for your help in keeping our shelves full, and thanks to moms and dads for bringing the food to church for you!!

We can use spaghetti sauce, cereal, pancake mix, syrup, jelly, juice, canned tomatoes, jiffy mix, laundry soap, and toothpaste.

PORK CHOPS A reminder that you can still buy pork chops. They are all marinated and you have a choice between already cooked and uncooked. They are currently frozen in zip lock bags with 4 pork chops per bag. We are selling them for $5.00 a bag. If you are interested in purchasing pork chops please see Cindy Spice.

OPEN DATES for Altar Flowers are October 27, November 3, and all Sundays in December. During Advent we use evergreen arrangements on the altar in place of flowers.

Cost of Altar Flowers is $33.00.
