Bags of Hope!

 

Youth are also still busy with a service project, Bags of Hope!, and are asking for the congregation’s continued help. The youth want to bring hope and show kindness to those less fortunate that are encountered standing along the road in our communities. 

 

First, they ask that you consider donating to the project by purchasing items listed below and bringing them to a drop off box at the youth room. Alternatively, you are welcome to donate funds and the youth will do the shopping for you. 

​

This is a ongoing service project, so donations continue to be collected:

Gallon storage bags

Water bottles

Protein/granola bars

Snack bags of crackers/nuts/cookies

Travel hand sanitizer

Travel tissue packs

Single wrapped masks

Single pair socks/gloves

Winter hats

 

Secondly, bags are currently available in a box in the church narthex, and they ask that you consider taking one or more to help distribute during your travels.

In addition to the items to be purchased, a card with a Bible verse and resource information is included in the bags. If you pick up a bag, keep it in your car, and distribute when you encounter someone in need when driving. 

​

The youth would like to express a resounding THANK YOU to all who have supported Bags of Hope! through donations and/or taking a bag for distribution.

Currently, the most needed items for donation are:

Travel Tissue packs and snack bags of crackers/cookies
