Nov. 17 – Meal Packing

We are Grateful!

As we enter the month of Thanksgiving Day, we thank everyone for your generous donations of food and time to fill the meal packs for our 35 children at Halley Elementary children identified as experiencing food insecurity.

Our next meal pack assembly will be here soon: Sunday, Nov. 17th. Some of us like to bring the same item(s) each month. Others enjoy variety. Whatever your preference, please consider bringing a six-pack of any of the 10 items needed for our meal packs. It helps with our planning when you use SignUp Genius to let us know ahead what food items you wish to donate by SIGNING UP HERE. Then drop off your food donations in the specially marked black bins located inside the church by Sunday, Nov. 17.

For more details about our No Child Goes Hungry/Accotink program including a handy list you can carry to the grocery store, visit our No Child Goes Hungry Meal Packing webpage.

EVERYONE is invited to participate—children, youth, teens and adults working together assembling these meal packs in church right after the Sunday service throughout this church year these dates: 11/17, 12/15, 1/26, 2/23, 3/16, 4/27, and 5/18.

This food justice community program is sponsored by the Social Justice Committee and our Children and Youth Spiritual Development Committee. Thanks for your support!
