FOOD PANTRY
On November 20, fifty-three pounds of groceries were donated. In addition, a congregation member used a Thrivent Action Team to purchase 108 pounds of groceries. All grocery donations were delivered to Westwood immediate needs pantry. This brings our current total to 8,903 pounds. Monetary donations were $40, bringing the current total to $13,695.
At this time of Thanksgiving, the Food Pantry Ministry wishes to thank the congregation for its heartfelt and continued support -- shopping for groceries, carrying groceries to the church, making monetary donations, and for your prayers and efforts in our fight against hunger.
Thank you for making Thanksgiving happier for many others. HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
The Thanksgiving Decorations
were done this year by Ingrid Quinn and Ingrid Keane to God's glory and in loving memory of Lillian Rivera.
