Pennies and Spare Change for Turkeys
Community Service Project

Let's work together to make a difference for the needy families in our community this holiday season. Gather your pennies and spare change, and take a piggy bank from the narthex to start collecting. With your help, we can achieve our goal of $500. Since 2005, we have raised over $5,000 through this project. Your generous contributions will provide Christmas Baskets to those in need through the Five Cities Christian Women's Food Pantry.
