LOCAL MISSIONS
FEBRUARY Love, INC Supply Drive
Personal care items cannot be purchased with SNAP benefits (food stamps) and are rarely available at food pantries. Each February we collect personal care items to help stock the Love INC pantry shelves.
Most needed items are laundry detergent, shampoos, body washes, body lotions. |
MAY Veterans Food Supply Drive
When collecting foods for the Veterans local food pantry we keep in mind that some Vets are homeless and they might not have anywhere to cook. It helps to donate canned food that are ready-to-eat but will also last. Cans with pop tops are especially helpful.
Helpful foods: cup noodles, instant coffee packets or small jars, canned tuna or meats, canned soups and stews, canned vegetables and fruits. |
AUGUST A S May School Supply Drive
We collect school supplies and stuff backpacks starting in August for a September delivery to A S May Elementary for families that could use some help with the beginning of the school year costs for school supplies. We collect pens, pencils, paper, notebooks, erasers, book bags, glue, tissues, staplers, three ring binders

OCTOBER Community Thanksgiving Basket Supply Drive
Our Church will again be participating in the Adopt-a-Family for Thanksgiving Program. We join with other local churches to provide a family of 5 a complete nutritious, traditional meal. We collect different foods to make up a dinner and a check for $20.00 to cover the cost of the turkey, pie and rolls. We can also collect funds so the food items can be purchased.
