Gather & Share: July's Theme is Snack Time!
Our church has set a goal of donating three tons of food to the HOPE food shelf this year. We’re just shy of reaching our first 2,000 pounds of food donated to HOPE this year — and July is the perfect month to push us over the top!
This month’s theme is Picnic Basket, and we’re calling on everyone to think out of the box and into the basket! What’s in your picnic basket?
🧂 Ketchup, mustard, mayo, relish
🥒 Pickles (yes to these heavy jars!)
🔥 BBQ sauce, hot sauce, or grilling spice rubs
🥗 Salad dressings — ranch, Italian, vinaigrettes
🍝 Pasta salads or boxed macaroni salad kits
🌽 Canned baked beans or corn
🍉 Shelf-stable treats like lemonade mix, iced tea, or cookies
These heavier items help us reach our goal faster — and add joy to a neighbor’s table this summer! Bring in a bottle, a bag, or a basketful!
🧺 Drop donations off to the office (9-12) any time during the week or bring them with you on Sunday!
Let’s feed HOPE — and hit a TON! We are so close!
