We will break bread, slurp soup and dive into dessert while collecting canned goods and other donations for those in need. We hope to have a “souper” good time and share our gifts with others! All are welcome! The lunch will be provided by our Sunday School families and the Education Committee – so just come and enjoy! Please sign up on the posting in the narthex or contact the church office.
