MARCH COMMUNITY OUTREACH
Collecting Linen Items: We are working with the Church of the Resurrection to provide Home Starter Kits to families who are moving into permanent housing. These families have been homeless for some time, and often do not have the basic items to set up a new home. In March, we will be collecting donations of new or lightly used linen items. These items include: Crib blanket &/or fitted sheet, Twin, Double, Full, Queen, King blanket &/or sheet sets, Pillows (new only), Pillowcases, Washcloths, Bath towels, and Hand towels. A container will be in the foyer for these donations. For more information, contact Grace Low at 281-507-2707.
