Many of you have already heard about the house fire on Cornell. While the family is all safe and together, the fire was devastating. Many of you have already come together to offer help. There will be a donation account set up at Chase bank. Donations can be made at any Chase bank and funds will go directly to the family. No account number will be needed. Just reference the family effected by the fire on Cornell.
Wondering what to do with your empty ink jets? There is a box in the window in the Fellowship Hall where you can drop them off! Once the box is full, it gets mailed to a recycling company that will send Christian Education a check for the empty cartridges! Easy way to donate to the church without costing you a cent!
Thank you so much to all who donated to the winter clothing drive. Please know that your items went directly to those who need them the most!
