| FOOD PANTRY Every Thursday, we have a food pantry for those in need in our neighborhood. We can always use donations of paper grocery sacks and dry goods. We are very excited because this summer, we are going to be adding fresh produce to our selections from our new hunger garden’s harvest. GARDEN BUDDIES Have a green thumb, or just like to dig in the dirt? Join our new Garden Buddies group as we grow fresh veggies like heirloom tomatoes, sweet potatoes, and a myriad of hot and sweet peppers in our hunger garden. The fruits of our labors will be donated to our food pantry. You are also welcome to help yourself to some of the harvest—especially if you don’t have the space or the time to garden anymore. MENTOR A CHILD AT SCHOOL 70 You can make a difference in the life of a child with a one-hour or more commitment per week. Help children at IPS #70 improve their reading and writing skills. Volunteer forms are available from the church office. SERVE DINNER AT WHEELER A group from Northwood Christian Church regularly goes to Wheeler Mission to help serve dinner. Generally, everyone leaves from the church parking lot and carpools downtown. If you are available from 4:15 to 6:30 PM on the days that they plan to go, feel free to come and lend a hand. Wheeler would be happy to have you! Contact Denise Rogers at dfrzta2000@yahoo.com for more details. |
