Please return grocery bags with food donations by Sunday, Feb. 1st. Don't forget to write the price value of your groceries and the total number of canned goods on the outside of the bag. The youth will also be doing other mission service projects on Super Bowl weekend.

Offering Envelopes: If you are wishing for 2009 Envelopes from Center Moreland, please call Bob Phillips at 333-4226.

Crayon Can Project: We are collecting old and broken crayons. Rather than be thrown away and take decades to biodegrade, they will be melted and reformed into fun shapes, and given to special needs or sick children. For more information, please go to www.crayoncan.com, or contact Melinda Smith.
