Thanksgiving Food Baskets
The holiday season is just around the corner and Lord of Grace is preparing for our annual Thanksgiving food drive. As you know we collect food not only for a Thanksgiving meal but also to stock the pantry. The pantry items help families feed their children during the holidays when schools are closed. This year the majority of food boxes that are collected will be given to support needy families at Roadrunner Elementary School. Due to the school holiday schedule, the boxes need to be delivered to Roadrunner by November 9,2023 which means we need to start collecting food in October.
Here are important dates to note:
October 8th and 15th -Bags and food lists will be available at both services
November 2nd –Deadline for donating food and money
November 3rd- Food will be sorted in the fellowship hall
November 4th- Boxes will be packed
Times for sorting and packing will be determined so keep your eyes open!
Lutherans love to feed people and Lord of Grace is no exception. Year after year, your generosity overflows and God’s love and grace are shared with the community. Thank you for participating in this ministry.
