Social Ministry Collection for ELCA Good Gifts
The Social Ministry committee will start their Giving Tree collection on November 30th. We will be collecting children’s gloves for Pearl City School and we will also be collecting shelf stable food, paper products, and toiletries for The Veterans Footlocker. The collection will run through January 4th. To take part in this collection just remove a paper ornament from the tree of an item you would like to donate. Put a regular ornament (provided ) on the tree in the spot where you removed the paper ornament. Regular ornaments are in a box by the elevator. Purchase the item listed on the paper ornament. Bring the purchased item to church and place it in the donation box next to the tree. All items will be delivered after January 4th. Thank you for taking part in this important ministry.
