This Fall, the Mission Ministry Team is again sponsoring Sack Lunches for Hope Clinic. These simple lunches are intended to “tide folks over” between the nightly dinners available at Hope, so they are very basic, but greatly appreciated. Since the need is so great, we are hoping to pack out 96 lunches this time! Twice as many as in the spring!
Food items need to be either cellophane wrapped or pop-top cans so that no can openers or other utensils are needed. Also, many of our recipients will not have access to stoves, so we would like things that can be eaten right from the container, if necessary. Many of these items come in sets of 6, so that’s how they are listed on the signup. If you want to get 12, just sign up for two slots. Please, provide the sizes indicated as bag space is a bit limited. (No super-sizing for this project.)
Sign up to provide needed items here.
Drop off items at Westminster beginning on Sunday, September 7th and continuing through to Sunday, October 12th. Collection bins will be located at the Scio Church and West entries.
If you have questions or would like to help with the packing out of the lunches on October 13th, contact Lynda Berg.
Thank you all for your continued support and generosity as we reach out into the community and continue to help our neighbors in need.
