We are entering into a season of giving, and one opportunity is fast approaching.  Every year at this time we ask those in our church family to donate non-perishable food items for our Thanksgiving Food Drive.  This would include items such as canned fruit and vegetables, cereal, and pasta.  We will be setting aside a section in the Auditorium Foyer to house the food as it accumulates over a 3-week period. 
 
Donations can be brought to the church starting this Sunday, October 29th, and on any of the following three Sundays leading up to Thanksgiving  (November 5th, 12th, or 19th).  Donations can also be brought to the church during the week anytime between October 30th and November 17th.  
 
On the morning of the 19th, we will take time to recognize this season of giving – and thanksgiving – giving thanks to God for His many blessings throughout this past year.  After the service, those who serve on the Deacon Board will organize and prepare to distribute the donated food to individuals or families from within our church who could use a little help at this time of year.  

Would you please consider donating some of the items listed above?  If so, please bring these items to the church at your convenience any time between Sunday, October 29th, and November 19th.

Thank you for participating in this season of giving!
