▪ 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.
