MISSION MINDED
PRAYER BLANKET MAKING - Tuesday, June 20, 6PM
Thank you to all who came out and helped with making blankets on April 11. We were able to finish all 6 blankets and had fun in the process. We are planning to have another event Tuesday, June 20 at 6PM. Since these blankets are such nice gifts to the struggling, sick and the homeless, we have discussed this may be a great event to have monthly. Please let Danielle S know if you are interested in participating so she can get enough material to keep everyone busy for a couple hours. Would love to see your faces. Snacks and drinks will be provided.
GOOD WORKS LUNCH MINISTRY - Saturday, August 12
The Mission Committee is looking for volunteers to prepare lunches for the Good Works Lunch Ministry on the morning of Saturday, August 12th. St. Vincent has been given the opportunity to assist with delivery and preparation of 33-50 lunches. These lunches will be delivered to 3 to 5 homes, and each month varies. Please take note of the sign-up sheet in the back of the
church for volunteering. Also, you can consider donating a snack, beverage, etc. to include in the lunches. Please leave your donations at the back of the church marked for Lunch Ministry. Questions? Contact Danielle S or Paula E
BAGS OF HOPE for BRINGING HOPE HOME - through August 27
This is a program that allows donors to create and drop off care packages to local hospitals/ cancer centers for families who are going through treatment. Please help gather items for Bringing Hope Home, Bags of Hope.
You will find a list of suggested items in the back of the church. This list contains items that will help families undergoing treatments with their physical needs as well as provide entertainment.
We are looking to prepare 100 bags to deliver to local hospitals and cancer centers. These items will be needed by August 27th. Please mark your items for Bags of Hope & leave them at the back of the church. Questions? Please contact Danielle S. Thank you!
FREEZER MEAL MINISTRY
A small gesture, like providing a meal, can be a blessing both to the giver and receiver. This program is an opportunity for volunteers to prepare meals that can be frozen in advance and available to be shared with families or individuals in our church or community who are facing a life event (i.e. welcoming a new child, experiencing a personal crisis or medical issue, grieving a loss, etc.). We keep them in the freezer downstairs for distribution. Questions? Contact Sam H.
