We’re Rearranging

Due to the blessing of many food donations over the past year (a few of them were quite large), the
room used for the Pantry is no longer big enough to house the food. The Pantry is now located in
room 5. The old Pantry room will be used to store Communion supplies, Potluck supplies, and food
and other items for Shower Shuttle and Travelers
