Mission & Outreach have a couple of opportunities for you:
Food Drive to benefit our partner – Groveland Food Shelf – March 1-29
March is Minnesota FoodShare month and First Christian is calling on YOU to collect Ramen packets for the Groveland Food Shelf. Why this one item? It’s a game-changer for those who need it most! Their faces light up when they can select special treats like this! Our goal is to collect at least 200 packets of ramen.
We’re not alone in this effort – nearby churches are joining forces, each focusing on a different item. And the best part? The organizers of MN FoodShare will give Groveland a bonus donation based on our collective efforts and all the other food donations we get in March! Last year’s bonus was a whopping $7000!
Collection bins will be located in the Garden Sanctuary between March 1-29. Let’s come together to feed our neighbors and spread hope!
Sandwiches for Groveland Food Shelf and Agate
Mission & Outreach invites you to join them following worship on March 15 as we will be making sandwiches for Groveland Food Shelf and for Agate Housing’s new shelter, Valiance. We’re going to be making a total of 300 sandwiches – we have a great time, so please join us.
