The Gift of Giving
Although there is not much time before Thanksgiving, our church will be blessing4 families who are in need of food for a Thanksgiving meal. This is a wonderful outreach for our church and an opportunity to show those who have a need that God loves them and will meet their needs.
On Wednesday we will have boxes out for all four families. Here are some specifics on the families:
Family 1 - is a family of 6
Family 2 - is a family of 5
Family 3 - is a family of 3
Family 4 - is a family of 5
Posted on the box will be a list of items for Thanksgiving items, you are welcome to donate these or also staple foods which are needed.
Here is an example of Thanksgiving foods for the boxes:
Turkey or Ham
boxes or bags of stuffing
boxes of mashed potatoes
jars of gravy
green beans *Green Beans are taken care of* or other canned vegetables
boxes of macaroni and cheese
rolls or bread
dessert items - pies etc.
fresh fruit - apples, oranges etc.
*fresh sweet potatoes have been donated*
feel free to include any other menu items.
There will be a list posted on the boxes with the amount of each item requested. This will ensure a good variety of food and eliminate duplication of items. Please call the church office with any questions or call or email Joyce at rejoyful@windstream.net
