Channel One
The Church maintains a collection barrel for Channel One, the community food shelf, which is kept in the coat room. Congregants are encouraged to pick up an extra item or two for Channel One when they shop and to bring their donation to church on Sundays. Although Channel One is most appreciative of cash donations, we feel it is also important to model charitable giving for our children.
The most requested items at the food shelf are hearty canned goods like tuna fish and beef stew, or Hamburger Helper and Kraft Macaroni and Cheese. Also in demand are all products that support children, such as diapers and formula. Paper goods such as toilet paper and facial tissue are great because they don't go bad.
Please don't bring expired or opened items, which just have to be thrown out anyway.
Thank you for your support of this community outreach effort.
