This Week’s Announcements

Food Pantry Donations Collection will be this Sunday January 10, 1-2 pm
Our first effort to collect food donations for the Bowie Food Pantry was a great success, so the Justice League will be sponsoring a monthly drop-off day. We invite you to bring food to the church parking lot this Sunday January 10, from 1-2 pm. If you attend services in person on that Sunday morning, you can drop off donations in the narthex, we ask that you put them in bags or boxes. Please remember they do not accept food donations that are expired. Particularly needed Items are: Soups, Beans, Canned vegetables,  Beefaroni,  Peanut butter,  Canned meats, Canned fish, Rice, Instant mashed potatoes,  Granola bars, Cereal,  Condiments, Pasta. If you would like to donate fresh produce, they are asking for: Apples, oranges, peppers, squash, potatoes, onions.  Thank you for your generosity and continued support! Any questions, please contact Peggy Alexander at [email protected]

Toiletries Collection January 24, 1-2 pm
Gaywood Elementary School wishes to provide toiletries & hygiene items for students & their families. To assist them in this effort, the Justice League will be collecting donations of the following products on Sunday January 24: shampoo, conditioner, bar soap, powder, deodorant, lotion, toothpaste, toothbrushes, mouthwash, tissues, sanitary napkins, combs, brushes, and wash cloths. Gaywood has specifically requested smaller sizes of these products, including travel sizes, so that they may more easily bundle and distribute them. Note that these items will be available to all Gaywood students, not just the families in our food program. Donations can be dropped off in the narthex Sunday morning or in the parking lot from 1-2pm. Thank you for your generous support of the Gaywood community!
