MANNA FOOD SUMMER COLLECTION – GIVE BEYOND EMMANUEL’S WALLS
Many of our area students in schools qualify for free or reduced-price meals (FARMS) at school. So who feeds these kids breakfast and lunch during the summer? There's not much room in their parents' budgets for extra food expenses. So, their families turn to places like the MANNA Food Center to make up the difference. Not surprisingly, MANNA gets its highest demand during June, July, and August.
That means it's time for churches like Emmanuel to step in and keep MANNA's shelves full. For that reason, we collect food in the narthex on every Sunday during the summer - from June 15 through August 31. We make periodic deliveries to MANNA during the summer - to keep low-income county kids (and low-income folks generally) fed.
Care to help? Please bring some items from the list below to church with you this summer as part of your offering.
MANNA especially needs:
Breakfast Cereal Rice – Beans - Pasta
Canned Meats/Tuna Fish Spaghetti Sauce
Canned Fruit and Vegetables Shelf-Stable Milk
Baby Formula/Baby Food Peanut Butter
Shopping list: New backpacks, calculators, boxes of pencils and pens, erasers, glue, glue sticks, rulers, markers, crayons (24-48 per box), 3-ring binders, pocket folders, notebook dividers, marble composition books, pencil boxes, wide-ruled loose leaf paper, spiral notebooks, small boxes of tissues, and highlighters.
