We are getting books every day and additional help is needed. Any time you can give us would be greatly appreciated. FOOD CLOSET – Almost 80 people have been served by the Food Closet in the last two months. This demand is a little higher than normal, but we expect it to remain steady in the coming months. Please consider helping to stock the Food Closet with canned vegetables, canned soups, baked beans, and fruit cups. Bev Reger notes that Aldi’s usually has the best prices on these items. If you prefer, feel free to give a monetary donation to Bev or the church office (mark it for the Food Closet). Thank you for helping to feed our community members!
