Week of March 19, 2017

Food Bank
Needs: Specifically—cold cereal, rice or rice helpers, pasta, crackers, dry soup, and canned items, including soups, fruits, beans, baked beans, tomatoes, and tuna.

Market Basket
During the first three Sundays of each month, you have the opportunity to buy grocery cards in the office after service. You can buy cards for the following month and pick up the ones you ordered last month. Remember, the discount we earn from purchasing cards in bulk from Giant, Stauffers, and Weis provide food for the Saturday Breakfast downtown once a month. Helping others is easy, as well as a wonderful thing!

One Great Hour of Sharing
The One Great Hour of Sharing offering today, March 19, is for sharing resources and changing lives in 138 countries daily. Your support provides clean water, food, shelter, medicines, health care, and education, as well as responding to disasters in both the U.S. and internationally. Sixty-four percent of giving is directed to developments in health, education, and agriculture.  Twenty-seven percent is directed toward international and national disaster relief and refugee services.

We read in 2 Corinthians 9:8: “God is able to provide you with every blessing in abundance, so that by always having enough of everything, you may share abundantly in every good work.”
