Beyond Our Building
During the next two weeks we will be filling grocery bags/boxes with items for Thanksgiving meals for 48 August School families. August School is located at 2101 Sutro Ave. Each classroom teacher has chosen two families from their classroom to receive a Thanksgiving meal.
This weekend we hope that you will shop for the items on the list and bring them to church on Sunday. Remember you can drive up and park by the ramp going into the Atrium. and someone will take your shopping bags.
If you are unable to shop and would like to donate; write a check to CUMC and on the memo line write Thanksgiving in a Bag or on the donation envelope
Here is a suggestion: ask your neighbors or co-workers to donate items that are on our list.
