Mission of Hope

Food Drive

After serving at Mission of Hope on behalf of the Outreach Committee on 21 February 2008, it was decided the Outreach Committee will hold a Food Drive until the next meal our church serves at the Mission on 20 March 2008. This March meal will be provided and served by our Intern Committee.

Shari Singelstad (Outreach Committe) was given a tour of the facilities before the meal was served and had the following comments:

One of the rooms I went into was the food pantry. The food pantry was almost empty because in January over 500 people came in asking for small food donations. The Mission really needs canned fruit, canned vegetables, and cereal. Please watch for the donation boxes in the narthex marked "Canned Goods for Mission of Hope." If you are able, please consider donating now until 20 March 2008.

Look for more information in the church inserts and newsletter on how you can sign up to help at one of the monthly meals or donate food to be served.
