  • Gather & Share: Picnic Basket

    We are currently just short of the 2,000 pounds needed to complete our first ton, but to be fair, the June list was not very "weighty." So, if you are wondering what July's theme for our collects for HOPE, it is...“Picnic Basket." Think ketchup, mustard, relish, BBQ sauce, mayo, salt & pepper and grilling spices, salad dressing, macaroni salad, and let's not forget the pickles! – ll of which are much "heavier."

  • Lunches!

    The Ladies Lunch will be held at the church in the Russell Carpenter Room at 11:30 am on Thursdays once a month. The next lunch is on July 18th.
