Our next opportunity to help those most in need in our community is Monday and Tuesday, August 26-27 at Trinity Church in Wheaton. There will be approximately 60 clients. Please add your name to the sign-up sheet at the info desk in the Rotunda if you are able to help. Assistance is needed with food, serving, overnight monitoring and cleanup. This is a wonderful way to show God’s love.

Knowing school will start in a couple of weeks, we want to remind you of Roseland “Good News” Day Care Center. As you go through your children’s clothing, please think of Ms Pearl and her little ones with your children’s gently used clothing that no longer fits them. Please bring your donations to the Rotunda coatroom, marked “Ms Pearl.” Thank you!
