FOOD SUNDAYS

It is not often that mistakes turn out the yield good news. Last week, however, we made a boo-boo that turned out to give us good news this week! We had reported a collection of 315 pounds of food for The Salvation Army food pantry, but we had forgotten to take the food from the Chapel over to the main church for pickup on Monday. This error was remedied, and the actual total of food is now a whopping 440 pounds! Additionally, you gave a total of $185 in cash and checks for The Salvation Army food pantry to use where there is the greatest need. Yes, cash is always welcome, too. THANK YOU ALL!
