LET US GET TO KNOW YOU!
Our weekly Shoutout wants to highlight our families/individuals from St. Matthew. Please join in on the fun, and tell us about YOU!
DRIVE-THROUGH FOOD DRIVE
Sunday, May 4
12:30-2:00
Parking Lot
The St. Matthew Evangelism and Communication team will sponsor a “Drive-Through Food Drive” on Sunday, May 4, from 12:30-2:00 p.m. in the church parking lot. Enter the lot off of Broadway, and depart the lot via Pearl Street. Volunteers will be present to unload your vehicle and place the donations directly onto a truck bed ready for distribution to area food banks in Medina County. (Some items will go directly to our own soon-to-be-available food shelves!)
We desire food that can be paired for a meal (such as pasta & sauce, tuna & noodles), as well as canned meats (tuna fish, chicken, beef stew), breakfast items, soup, canned vegetables, canned fruit, fruit cups, rice, peanut butter and jelly. We also desire items not covered by gov’t. programs such as baby diapers, adult briefs, toilet tissue, paper towels, napkins and cleaning supplies. Please check the expiration dates on canned goods.
Would you like to help? Volunteers are always needed. Just show up on Sunday, May 4!!!
