backpacks for Daily Bread Soup Kitchen

We collected 75 full backpacks to give to the Daily Bread Soup Kitchen.  Wow!  What an outpouring of generosity.  Thanks to all who donated backpacks and who helped with this Hunger Initiative event in other ways. This photo shows the huge pile of backpacks in the church lobby and some of the folks who helped move them to the car for transportation to the soup kitchen!

Ally training on LGBTQ language sensitivity

Rachel Storm and Maggie Thomas led a workshop on language sensitivity on December 2 at the church.  They discussed common terms and their definitions that apply to the LGBTQ community.  Interested in learning more?  A summary of these definitions are on the information table in Fellowship Hall.  Look for the next workshop after the holidays.
