Monthly Food & Cereal Drive – April 20/21
We will hold our regular monthly food drive for the local food pantries on the weekend of April 20/21. The Rocky Hill Food Bank is in need of coffee, juice, tea, canned chicken, ham, tuna, rice, Dinty Moore stews, chowders, peanut butter, jelly, canned fruit, condiments, paper goods, soaps and cleaning supplies. Thank you for honoring our ongoing commitment to Amazing Grace Food Pantry in Middletown to collect and donate 200 boxes of cereal on the third weekend of the month on their behalf.

Faith Formation Classes to Participate in MobilePack
It has been quite some time since our original MobilePack had to be postponed due to Storm Sandy…but we finally have our NEW dates!! As a reminder…Feed My Starving Children is a Christian, non-profit organization that has been dedicated to providing scientifically designed nutritional meals to malnourished children in nearly 70 countries for 25 years! Some of our K-1 and 6-8 Early Childhood / Faith Formation classes have chosen to participate in helping God’s children through this wonderful mission by raising money to purchase the raw materials needed to make up the meal packs.
Our new MobilePack dates are May 2-4, 2013 and we are still hoping to have some of our youth and families volunteering to pack at the event in Berlin. We are continuing with our fundraising efforts as well. If you feel called to contribute to this mission, please contact Kim Pier at 860-635-0721 or kimberlypier@sbcglobal.net. Each meal costs $0.22 so donations go a long way to help children around the world. For more information please visit our website: http://centralct-fmscmobilepack.org. Thank you!!
