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!
Heritage and Horizons
The spring 2017 session of Heritage and Horizons will begin on Tuesday, March 7 at 9:30 am. There is still time to sign up for the series, or for as often as you choose to attend.
Girl Scout Cookies
On Sunday, March 12, Girl Scout Daisy Troop #70435 will be hosting a cookie sale in the lobby from 10-11 am. These Daisies are Girl Scouts in kindergarten and first grade who meet at the church Youth Center. This year marks the 100th year of the cookie sale, and March 12 is the 105th birthday of Girl Scouting in the U.S. Come help us celebrate this huge milestone by supporting our girls between services. Cookies are $4 or $5 and can be paid for by cash or check. Please contact Linda Lewis at (717) 392-7437 if you have any questions.
Widowers Support Group
On Wednesday, March 15 at 3 pm, Rev. Kathryn Kuhn will facilitate a group discussion on the life changes that follow the loss of a spouse. Recognizing that your journeys are all different, we thought this may be an outlet for you to find support and to support others in their respective experiences. We will have coffee and pastries for your enjoyment and hope you will seriously consider attending. Please call the church office at (717) 392-5718 if you would like to join us.

Hershey’s® Kisses Collection
The Intergenerational Events Committee is collecting PLAIN Hershey Kisses for stuffing eggs for the Easter Egg Hunt. There is a collection box in the office. Thank you for donating PLAIN Kisses. This helps us to avoid any allergy issues. We draw a huge crowd for the egg hunt, and it is a great way to welcome the community to COA.
