Pennies for Hunger & Easter Food Baskets
Sunday, February 17
This Sunday is Pennies for Hunger Sunday. Please share in blessing this outreach endeavor by bringing your loose change (or dollar bills) to bless those in need. Two cents may seem like an insignificant amount of money, but it is your two cents a meal and that of others in the Salem Presbytery that have enabled us to assist the hungry both here and all around the world. Since 1989, nearly 2.2 million dollars have been distributed to feed those who hunger. Thank you for the active role you play in this ministry and mission.
Please bring the following food items on Sunday to help us prepare for the upcoming Easter Food Baskets - peanut butter, jelly, applesauce.
