"Souper Bowl" Food Drive: The Missions Team is sponsoring their "Souper Bowl" Food Drive on Super Bowl Sunday, February 12th. We are looking for donations primarily of canned soup, chili, and other non-perishable food items. These donations will be given to the Help & Hope Center in Castle Rock to benefit those in need in our community.
Safeway Grocery cards: Safeway has changed vendors for the community reloadable cards and your current cards can no longer be reloaded, but still can be used. Theresa Kepple will be purchasing new ones and we are hopeful they will be available soon.
Knot Again will meet on Wednesday, February 1, from 6 pm to 8:30 pm in Fellowship Hall. Anyone that can make a knot is welcome to join us. Those with really good eyesight thread the needles for all. We always have great conversations. This group welcomes donations of
• regular thread for the sewing machine - any and all colors accepted.
• blankets of any size and shape, can have a hole or 2 and still be useful for us
• old sheets (all sizes) we have found very useful to use on the inside of quilts can be thin but maybe not have actual holes
• material - again any excess from sewers, maybe not super small pieces from ACTUAL quilters as these are time-consuming for me to sew together
