Gifts of Love FoodCare Drive
What it is: We regularly partner with Gifts of Love in Avon, donating groceries and other items to serve those in need in our neighborhoods.
What to do: Pick up a green FoodCare bag in the Welcome Area at church, then fill it with groceries and other items on the list attached to the bag. (You can also use your own bag.) Return it to the FoodCare drop-off spot in the Welcome Area by November 17.
Foster Care Team Toy Drive
What it is: Give a gift to a child, student, or young adult in Foster Care. Participate by placing a NEW, unwrapped toy or a $15-25 gift card under the Christmas Tree in the Sanctuary Lobby. These gifts will be given to DCF workers to distribute to children on their caseloads. Please no toy weapons or clothing donations.
