Social Justice & Service Opportunities

Currently due to COVID-19, our service opportuniries are on hold except for the below:  

Peanut butter and jelly sandwich project:
This project supports Camillus House. Each week on Thursday morning they are delivered and are served as part of the lunch that day.   Any donations should be brought to the church by Wednesday.   The sandwiches must be in sandwich bags, and it would help if those sandwiches were put back into the original bread bag.  Paper towels and aluminum foil wrapping allow the bread to stale more quickly.

Any other type of sandwiches must be refrigerated, so when delivering them please let someone at the church know.  It would help to have some kind of marking on the sandwich bag identifying the type of sandwich.
