Souper Bowl of Caring Tackled Hunger with your donations of $155 and 167 items to remedy food and nutrition insecurity by those who use The Blessings Box. Thank you for tissues, toilet paper and all the food, personal and household items donated all through the year.
Protein food items are in highest demand and the most expensive when you’re already on a tight budget. Please add a jar of peanut butter, jar of nuts, or pouch of shelf-stable pepperoni, chicken, tuna, or salmon to the cart this week.
Mon., Feb. 10, 6:30 pm – Church Trustees meeting in the counting/choir room; at the top of the stairs from the rear entrances – organ side of the sanctuary. The trustees can always use help caring for our buildings and grounds.
Tues., Feb. 11 – Deliver dinner to Ronald McDonald House in Danville. Menu: ham, potatoes, mac & cheese, veggies, fruit, rolls, as well as snacks to stock their pantry. See Nancy Campbell or Barb Savage to coordinate food donations. Meet at the church at 4:30. After the delivery, our group will gather for dinner and laughter at a local restaurant. If you can’t assist with delivering food to Ronald McDonald House, perhaps meet the group for dinner. Dinner reservations need to be made so please contact Nancy.
Tues., Feb. 11, 6:30 pm – Staff-Parish Relations Committee meeting in the ground floor social hall of the church building. This committee works within the relationships of all paid and volunteer staff and the congregation. Because they deal with personnel issues, meetings are typically closed, but not always.

Tues., Feb. 18, 6:30 pm – Missions team meeting in the large classroom in The Lighthouse. If you are a part of the Missions team and are unable to attend, please talk to Bill Kocher or Carla Travelpiece. The meeting is not limited to the team. All who are interested are welcome.
