Food Collection Day

Hunger Relief is an important part of First Presbyterian’s mission in our community. Each month your generosity makes a real difference to hundreds of people who depend on the food banks the church supports at Wellspring Interfaith Social Services, East Wayne Street Center, and United Faith Presbyterian Church.  This month we will be collecting food at the 11:00 service on Sunday, April 21st.  Food items may also be left at the church office during the week.  Monetary donations are also greatly appreciated.  Please specify your donation is for Hunger Relief.

The following items are especially needed:  Spaghetti noodles, corn flakes or crispy rice cereal, boxed macaroni and cheese, canned fruit in juice (peaches, pears, or fruit cocktail), canned green beans, spaghetti sauce—any variety (cans only), Manwich.

Thank you so much for your participation in this important church ministry. Thank you also to everyone for making this year’s Lenten Fish and Loaves collection a great success.  Over 200 cans of tuna and salmon and nearly 50 boxes or bags of crackers plus boxes of tuna helper were distributed to the local food banks.  All were greatly appreciated.
