Sharing Place feeds our neighbors

February 2, 2012

Please join us in serving our needy neighbors – volunteer at the Sharing Place. Our food ministry distributes bags of groceries to disadvantaged families, as well as bags of ready-to-eat food for the homeless, on the last two Saturdays of each month. In February, that’s Saturday the 18th and the 25th. Volunteers gather at 7 am to begin making up bags and serving our neighbors. We also need help with the truck that brings the food from the Community Food Bank on Wednesday, February 15, at 8:30 am. If you can help, please contact Paul LaCourtna, site supervisor, at 201-725-7202.
