Ways to Help

Our Daily Bread (ODB)

On June 9th 31 families donated 44 frozen casseroles, 2 large jars of peanut butter and 45 homemade masks.

We will continue doing casseroles again next week.

The link to ODB's instructions and recipes is here.

Just choose a recipe (or more), follow the recipe as it's written, bake in a 13x9 foil pan, let it cool, double wrap it with foil, label with type of casserole and date,

and freeze it. We'll be collecting the frozen casseroles on next Tuesday morning (6/16) between 10:00-11:00 AM behind the Church.Please bring your frozen casserole(s) in plastic grocery bags.

We'll also collect any homemade face masks that you'd like to donate.

Thanks for helping the ODB workers and their clients. If you have any questions, contact Bob at crhoopert@zoominternet.net
