New Communion

New Communion appreciates your generosity. Ways to give this holiday season besides just the normal peanut butter and jelly---donate $32.00 for meal boxes that feed 10 people using the envelope found inside the bulletin, Target gift cards, or items from our Amazon wish list (links to this list may be found in the Friday e-newsletter or on our Facebook Page).  You can also donate using PayPal ( http://www.newcommunion.org/donate/).  Your donations of peanut butter and jelly can be left in the New Communion Box in the office wing entrance.
 

Crisis Control Ministry

 
The requested item for January from Crisis Control Ministry is "TOILET PAPER".  Strange request?  No.  There are some items that do not qualify for purchase with food stamps and this is one.  You know how expensive it is when you purchase it for your home.  Let's all contribute our share to help those in need.  Place your contributions in the white box in the Education Foyer. Remember, we never miss what we give away!
