November Giving Box / Guest at Your Table (UUSC)
November GIVING BOX
November is Voting Month ..and so the Giving Box will "borrow" the following political slogan: Yes we CAN!!!!
The Watertown Food Pantry needs the following CANned goods in order to supplement their Thanksgiving Food Drive:
Canned peas -- carrots--corn--yams--green beans--gravy--cranberry sauce--ground coffee
and packaged Stove Top Stuffing mix and tea bags.
May we ask you to bring, if possible, at least 2 of the above items by Sunday, November 16th.
We know we CAN make a difference--just look at what our Giving Box has accomplished in the past two months: 900+ gently used books for the More Than Words project and, to date, 200+ outfits for SolutionsWear!!
We thank you for thinking of and supporting populations less fortunate. We here at First Parish have much for which to be thankful -- specifically each other and the gift of our spiritual community. Let's make November a real **YES WE CAN ** month --on many levels!!
Jill Shaw and Barbara Farrell
November also marks the time when we distribute Guest at Your Table boxes. These donation boxes are for the benefit of the programs of the Unitarian Universalist Service Committee. The boxes are given out on Thanksgiving Sunday, November 23, and can be returned on Christmas Eve, or any Sunday near Christmas. The offering on Christmas Eve is for the benefit of UUSC.
