Food Pantry Ministry - we could use a few good hands!
 Help out on 2nd and 4th Saturdays, set-up begins at 8:15am, we start serving at 9am and close at 10:30am.
We could use help running the dishwasher, setting up tables and tableware, busing tables and cleaning up. Sign up on-line, or speak with Karen Franklin. And as the weather gets colder donations of warm gloves, socks, and hats are welcome!

Please continue to shop for the Food Pantry!
We are always in need of our staples:
soups, canned pastas, tuna, Vienna sausages, peanut butter, fruit cups, and water; especially items with pull tab lids.
