Opportunity to Make a Difference
We will be hosting a funeral on Tuesday, October 12th for Kenneth “Breezy” Williams, who was a member of the community and a regular visitor to Showers of Love. We will need side dishes, rolls, salads, and desserts. We will also need volunteers to help with set-up, serving, and clean-up. There is a sign-up sheet on the water table in the auditorium, or you can call
the office if you are able to help.
