Yeast of Life,

301 Faith Partners Announcements |
|
You are invited to attend an online faith-based ZOOM-WATCH PARTY of Fort Collins Habitat for Humanity’s 'We Build Breakfast'
But be aware:
attend only if you want to be inspired to put your faith into action!
The 'We Build Breakfast' features Habitat’s overall efforts to enhance lives by building self-reliance and stability through decent, safe, affordable housing. We’ll hear stories of partner families being empowered through education, hard work, and their own resilience.
But this invitation-only WATCH PARTY is just for the faith community, with an opportunity to contribute to - and have all donations doubled for - the Thrivent Faith Build for Karen, whose home is being sponsored by many local faith communities, including our own 301 Faith Partners.
|
|
The breakfast is Wednesday, October 20th via ZOOM so you can brew up a cup of coffee and join in pajamas if you like. The program will begin promptly at 8:00 AM and will conclude by 8:30 AM.
There is no cost to attend and all costs for the event are underwritten, so 100% of contributions made from WATCH PARTY attendees will go to “bricks and sticks” AND be matched by Thrivent Financial.

Newcomer Migrant Youth Winter Gear Drive October 10-17, 2021
Drive for 60 New Immigrant Students at Poudre & Fort Collins High Schools & Lincoln Middle School
Our 301 Faith Partners are invited to “accompany” immigrant youth in Poudre School District’s Newcomer Program by donating items in the list below. The program is designed for immigrant and refugee youth who have recently arrived in Fort Collins and are attending Poudre High, Fort Collins High and Lincoln Middle School.
As we move into the winter months, we have been asked to help these newcomer youth and unaccompanied minors with teen clothing and gear. We are accompanied in this project by other faith community members of ISAAC, Dreamers United of CSU, Homeward Alliance and the family liaisons of PSD.
|
|
Events for the Newcomer Students will be held at their own schools Oct 20 and 21.
HOW CAN YOU HELP?
We will be taking donations of these items:
- new or gently used winter coats for teens (sizes S-L)
- new winter hats, gloves and socks
- hygiene items including these:
- --> Full size shampoo
- --> Full size body wash and lotion
- --> New razors, combs and brush
- --> Deodorant
- --> Chapstick/lip balm
- --> Toothpaste and brushes
- --> Sanitary napkins
**If you want to prepare whole hygiene bags in reusable grocery bags, that would be lovely! **
WHERE: Drop off items at the table in the 301 Fellowship Hall – (Look for the sign “Winter Gear Drive”). Our 301 Immigration Task Force members will deliver your donations to the donation sites.
WHEN: Drop off items from Sunday, October 10 through Sunday, October 17. Look for updates on deadline and other donation sites in upcoming e-bulletins.

THANKS to all of 301 Faith Partners for supporting this drive for these community newcomers!

Interested in Working on a Regional Web Team? |
The Regional Council (Rocky Mountain Regional Council of the ECC) is looking for people who have web design skills and would be interested in being our regional webmaster (or a member of a web team).
We will research user-friendly platforms that would meet our needs, but want input from those who would like to collaborate in this public ministry of the church.
It would also serve as a communications hub - with photos and write-ups about our community celebrations, outreach programs and advocacy opportunities. We can also host a regional events calendar, conversations with Bishop Kae, special announcements and media releases, and an archive of important regional documents.
