Lent/Holy Week/Easter

Easter Joy for pantry children--help make Easter baskets, Sunday, March 2, 2008 after worship: If you want to assist with the creation of Easter bags that will be given, over the next three Wednesdays, to the children served by the Irving Park Food Pantry, please contact Vicci Rodgers Keutzer. The supplies are being gathered today and tomorrow and the bags will be stuffed this Sunday after church in our fellowship hall. Volunteers from around the neighborhood are coming together to keep this annual outreach alive. The Easter giving was started by the youth of our church over 10 years ago. All ages are invited to help as we fill hundreds of bags with goodies to brighten the lives of these children. Donations are welcome. Vicci: vicci@therodgersgroup.com
