FOOD BANK: The February food item is peanut butter. The monthly food items are suggestions to give you some idea of what is needed; it is not intended to limit your donations to just those items. Please check the expiration dates on food that you donate. Food that is past the expiration date or very close to expiration will have to be thrown away. If you would rather donate cash put it in an envelope marked Food Bank or make a check payable to the Oregon Food Bank and put it in the offering plate. KITCHEN: When you sign-up for coffee after worship Bruce will attach “Helpful Hints for Fellowship Time After Worship” (they are also in the quarterly newsletter and on the kitchen bulletin board) to your email reminder that you will receive during the week before the Sunday you will be serving. We hope this will be helpful and make the morning go smoothly for Sunday Coffee Hour volunteers.
