In January and February we are focusing our community outreach on collecting contributions to the Ronald McDonald House of Memphis. There is a Wish List available with specific, 'most used' items. All non-perishable food, paper and cleaning supplies, and other miscellaneous items are gratefully accepted.
Volunteers are needed to help deliver items collected during the first week of March. On December 22nd, immediately following Potluck and our Christmas Party, all are invited to help deliver the Bears, sing Christmas carols with the children, then tell our story and watch the delight of the children as they find their "New Friends." What we give is love and assurance to children in a time of uncertainty in their young lives. What we get, as we reach out from our church into our community, is to make wonderful memories that will stay with us forever." Our goal is to deliver 200 bears. We will be loading the bears at 1:30 then departing for downtown to the Salvation Army Women & Children's Shelter. Drive time, building Bear Mountain, and time with the children takes approximately 2 hours total. Printed map and directions will be available. On behalf of Karen French, our Angel Tree Coordinator, we would like to thank each of you who contributed gifts and monetary donations to our 2013 Angel Tree. Thanks to your loving generosity, we were able to provide each of the six children and three seniors with everything on their wish lists! This is our opportunity to share our abundance and love with people in our community we may never meet, but in whose lives we make a difference! Extra special thanks to Vickie May and Henry Barnhardt who helped pack up, load, and deliver the gifts to the Angel Tree drop off location. Thank you to Karen for stepping up and taking over this very important, very special outreach effort! Thanks to each of us ~ it works!

Help us support this worthy cause with a non-perishable food item. Mid-South Food Bank is reaching out to area churches and other organizations to assist with Operation Feed. We are answering that call! We are extending our participation in the Food Bank's Operation Feed program through the month of June.
Summer months are when the Food Bank has the greatest number of families seeking assistance and the time when donations tend to drop off. This is our opportunity to reach out and make a difference in the lives of others in our community. |
