HURRICANE RELIEF EFFORTS: Over a hundred health kits were assembled by the Senior High Youth Group and delivered to Church World Service by Bob & Kathy Packard, to be distributed to victims of Hurricane Katrina. THANK YOU to all who donated cash or supplies for this project. At this point in time, additional donations of toothpaste are needed so we can make even more kits. ALSO, thank you to everyone who donated money towards hurricane relief. Due to your generosity, so far we have collected $1,617.37!

THE PARISH CARE TEAM would like to remind you that medical supplies such as walkers, commodes, shower seats, a wheelchair, etc. are available to borrow should you or a loved one find yourself in need. These items should be signed out so that we can keep track of them. Please call Ruthie Kimball if you need more information.
