United Church of Warsaw

Please remember the little children of the OCC as you do your shopping. Pamphlets that describe the program are available on the connection hall table. The very inexpensive school supplies now available at WalMart would be a great way to begin filling your box.

Thanks in advance! Larene

We are grateful for the very generous donations of food and cash we have received to help us through a very busy summer. We really appreciate all the help we have received.

Barb and I would like to thank Jane Heubusch, Ellen Chandler, Bev & Marv Putney, Carolyn Klopfer and Gerry Neeley who volunteered while Dick and I were on vacation.

Respectfully submitted, Joyce Neeley.

The Warsaw Area Food Pantry is experiencing a combination of low stock and high demand, and is in need of donations during the summer months. If you would like to make contributions to this vital ministry of our church and community, the following items are needed:

Canned fruit and vegetables

Peanut Butter

Pork and beans

Canned spaghetti

Canned tomato products

Tuna fish

All donations are greatly appreciated, and will be used to help care for the needy in our community. Thank you, in advance, for your faithful support of this important ministry.

Please note: Starting in September, the first Sunday of the month will be Food Pantry Sunday. Gifts for the Food Pantry will be received during the beginning portion of the service, so our children learn about the importance of this ministry.
