▪ It’s
time again to make
school kits. Bags (with instructions inside) are on the table in the foyer.
Please take as many as you’d like and return to the church by Aug.
20. There are a few “free supplies” on the table to get you started.
MCC is also asking for Relief Kits. You will find lists of items needed on the
bulletin board above the school kits. Take the full list to make a whole kit OR
write your name beside items you want to provide and take the tear-off slip to
remind you of what you will purchase. Bring those items to the church by August 20 also and place them in the large container beneath
the bulletin board. Relief kits will be assembled from your supplies. Thanks
for your generous giving.
▪ Saturday Kitchen was hosted by Washington Mennonite
Church for the noon meal on Saturday July 15th, 2017. We
served 70 plates and made 32 carry out dinners. We always receive many
compliments on our ham and scallop potato dinner. Thank you to each
of you who helped in making this meal possible with food donations,
same day food preparation, set up of dining room, serving and clean up.
We always have a good time working together. Our next
scheduled
time to serve at Saturday Kitchen is Labor Day weekend Saturday
September 2nd . Mark your calendar and join us as we
serve the noon meal. - Gloria Widmer,
Sandy Buhrow and Phyllis Litwiller
