They are in great need of sizes for boys and girls ages 10-14. Boxes will be in place for you donations the first of February. Collections for additional filler items will be received in April, August, and October. WE NEED YOUR COOPERATION Please only park in the designated parking spaces on the East side of the church (saw mill side). If all the parking spaces are taken when you get to church, please find another designated spot. If an emergency vehicle needs to get into this area, they must have ample room to maneuver. A fire at our church or at the lumber plant could be devastating if these emergency vehicles can’t get into where they need to be. Please help us protect you, our church, and the lumber plant. If you are physically able, please park in the front parking lot and leave spaces near the sides of the building open for those who need close access to the building. Thank you for your help!
