Outreach May June 2025

A collection bin for Laundry Love has been placed in the Narthex. We are collecting rolls of quarters, detergent pods, dryer sheets, and small plastic ziplock bags. This collection will be ongoing.

During June, we will collect menstrual hygiene products and new or gently used bras for the organization “I Support Girls.” It provides these products to local women, including trans and non-binary ones.

The Food Bank is in great need of food items, paper goods, and toiletries for our neighbors in Somerset County. We especially want to focus on personal items and cleaning products, such as toothpaste, feminine products, toilet paper, cleaning supplies, etc. Cash and checks are also greatly appreciated. There’s always a container on the stairs leading up to the choir loft. 

If you have any questions, please get in touch with Kathy Shanklin.
