The holiday season can be a very difficult time for those who are food insecure. You can help by donating just one non-perishable food item or personal care item during this season of advent. Use this reverse advent calendar to track items each day during December to add to a donation box.
On Christmas Eve, bring the donation box to church and either put the food items in our Love Pantry on the 7th Street side of church, or leave the box near the pantry and our high school youth will fill the pantry or store your box for a future week.
This is such an amazing way to easily give back this year and will not only bless those in need in our community but also keep us focused on the true meaning in this season.
