Purchase, Reload and Reuse your EPIC Dillons Gift Card
Everyone has a great opportunity to help St. James by purchasing EPIC cards and putting more money on the card on a regular and recurring basis. The Dillons Gift Card can be used to purchase groceries, gas, and gift cards to other places. This is a great time to purchase Gift Cards, they make the perfect gift. No guess work and don't we all appreciate those little plastic money cards? This is the perfect time with Mother's Day, graduations and so many weddings coming up in the next few months. The Dillons Gift Cards can be purchased from Jim Petty on Sunday mornings or from the bookkeeper, Joyce Haynes during church office hours. Please help, buy and use the St. James Dillons Gift Cards.
