DAYBREAK – JULY 9
1-2 persons to bake 2 doz. cookies each
Faith Church cooks and serves a meal at Daybreak on the second
Monday of each month, from 1:30 to 4:30 pm.
Daybreak is a drop-in center for people suffering from mental illness,
who may or may not also be homeless. Helpers are also needed, especially cooks, from approx. 1:30 to
4:30 pm. Because of possible nut allergies, please mark cookies that have
nuts in them. Sugar-free cookies are also appreciated. Drop them off in the kitchen by noon of that Monday.
For more information, speak with Carolyn Baittinger or Zona Farmer. Don’t pass up this very easy opportunity to “do unto others.”
SCRIP SCRIP orders are due Today.
The total amount raised so far in 2018 is $278.05.
Faith Church uses the scrip fundraising program, allowing church members to raise money for the church. Scrip is just another way to pay for everyday purchases using gift cards in place of cash, checks, and credit cards.
There is no additional cost to you at all! You simply purchase gift cards from the church at face value. The cards are then ordered by the church’s Scrip coordinator at a reduced price. The difference is an instant rebate for the church, which is then used to defray the costs of items that Session has approved of in advance. In the past, the rebates have helped to pay for blacktop repair and lighting improvement.
Help the church make this program a bigger success!! For a complete list of retailers or for more information check the table in the Fellowship Hall or www.glscrip.com. Contact the Scrip Coordinator, Lynda Scheirer at [email protected] if you have any logistical questions.
