Charitable Outreach
Committee Presents:
“Clear the Cupboards!”
We are still collecting non-perishable items for Stillpoint Mission in Bradenton until the end of April. Some of our Chapel family are leaving to go up north around this time, so they are clearing 
their cupboards and donating food. Gene Tischer, Director of Stillpoint Mission, is very appreciative of this effort.
Have you emptied your cupboards yet?
Let’s continue to fight hunger and food insecurity! Bring in your items any time the Chapel is open.
