2015-16 Food Food Pantry Collection
Following an inspirational Sunday morning visit with Ralph Germain, the chairman of the Compassionate Fund, in October of 2015, the Sunday Morning Youth On A Mission group was determined to find a way they could help fill the shelves of the food pantry. For the following three months the youth decided to coordinate a monthly food drive, targeting specific items where there were immediate needs. The collection took place before each service on the first Sunday of the month but all targeted items placed in the shopping cart near the office at any time during the month prior to the event were counted. The youth set a hefty goal of collecting 100 items per month. The youth participated in this service project by assisting with the event promotions as well as running the collection event.
Thank you to all who participated!
