"Souper Bowl"

This Sunday, February 5th, we will be participating in the "Souper Bowl of Caring." 


What is Souper Bowl of Caring?

Souper Bowl of Caring is a national movement of young people working to fight hunger and poverty in their own communities around the time of the Super Bowl football game. In the weeks leading up to or on Super Bowl Sunday, young people take up a collection (many use a soup pot), asking for one dollar or one item of food for people in need. They give 100% of their donation directly to the local hunger-relief charity of their choice.

During Worship this Sunday the children will be collecting monetary donations and non-perishable food items that will be distributed to local families in need.  Our congregation has already been generous with food donations and many of these have been distributed already.  This will enable us to replenish our supply and maybe help even more families.

So when doing your grocery shopping this week, grab some extra items if you are able, and support this worthy cause.  If you would prefer to make a monetary donation someone would be happy to do the shopping for you!

Thanks for all of your help!
