*********************

Feeding the hungry is one of the missions early church members were encouraged to do. Following in those footsteps, HPC members are encouraged to contribute food items for the Shepherd's Market at St. John Methodist Church. Our shopping basket will be in the sanctuary Sunday to receive non-perishable food items. If you prefer to provide financial assistance, make your check payable to Highland Presbyterian Church and denote "Shepherd's Market" on the memo line.
