Thanksgiving food drive
Now is the time to start bringing in items for the Thanksgiving food baskets our children will assemble in the weeks before Thanksgiving. Bring your non-perishable donations and leave them in the red bins in front of the hall office on or before Wednesday, November 20th, 2024. Children’s Ministry Director Hope Murphy is also accepting monetary donations to help offset the cost of turkeys and hams.
Last year we were able to collect food for 32 Thanksgiving meals. With your help, Children’s Ministry plans to decorate boxes and deliver Thanksgiving dinners to 32 families again this year.
Here’s a list of items that go into each Thanksgiving food box:
- bags or boxes of stuffing
- cans pumpkin pie filling
- cans of cranberry sauce
- can of sweet potatoes/yams
- cans of corn
- cans of green beans
- boxex/bags of muffin mix
- packets, cans or jars of turkey gravy
- boxes of macaroni & cheese
- cans of peas
- cans of cooking soups
- bags of rice
- boxes, bags or cans of potatoes
- a few staple items
The ministry team will add a turkey or ham to each box before delivery.
