Needs: coats, snowpants, boots, hats, and mittens. The sizes needed are 5-7
Gently used is fine, looking for 3 sets for each classroom which equals 45 sets and any extra mittens would be appreciated.

Week 1 - Hearty Soups, Stews, or Chili
Week 2 - Toilet Paper
Week 3 - Packaged Meals: Instant Potatoes, Rice Mixes, Hamburger Helper, etc.

Week 5 - Cereal or Granola
Anytime - Grocery bags; they use 2,000 grocery bags a week!
Coming this Advent: The Redemption of Scrooge - Sermon Series
This Advent, Ebenezer Scrooge becomes our unlikely guide into the season.
As his story moves from resentment, fear, and isolation toward joy, generosity, humility, and new life, we may discover that his journey is not so far from our own.
Beginning Sunday, November 29, come trace the way of grace that leads us toward Christmas.
