followed by our dessert reception.
Love the statement, “Let our lives be full of both Thanks and Giving.” We will be doing both during our Thanksgiving Eve Worship, living out the Great Commandment. Loving God - in Worship, giving thanks for our blessings. Loving Our Neighbors – by sharing our blessings with others. How we will do that is by having a collection for VEAP, our local food shelf and social service agency. www.veap.org Presently, the items most needed include: · Whole grain rice (1-2 pound bags) · Whole grain pasta · Hearty soups (high protein, low sodium) · Whole grain cereal (Shredded Wheat, Kashi, bran cereals, Chex, etc.) · Canned proteins (meat and beans) · Canned fruit and vegetables · Toilet paper · Paper towels · Diapers (size 5-7) and baby wipes · Cooking oil · Coffee · Baking essentials (flour, sugar, spices, baking soda and baking powder) · Laundry detergent · Dish soap · Personal care items (shampoo, toothpaste, hand soap, shaving cream, toiletries, etc.) · Gluten-free products (whole grains like brown rice, wild rice, quinoa, cornmeal; nut flours and butters; rice crackers, GF snacks, etc. Check for gluten-free product label.) · Birthday candles, cake frosting, birthday-themed napkins/plates, cake mix, small birthday party favors like chalk, bubbles or bags of balloons · Dog and cat food (particularly wet food, treats, litter, etc. · Paper bags and re-usable, cloth totes (We’ll always take your extra paper grocery bags. We are not accepting plastic bags). In addition, there will be a basket for financial gifts. So as you go shopping for your Thanksgiving meal, add some of the items above to share on Thanksgiving Eve. “Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God.” – Hebrews 13:16 Happy Thanksgiving! Ongoing Prayers and Blessings, Rob
