We will continue to hold our “Tailgate Party” for the Lutheran Food Pantry in the church parking lot from 2:00-4:00 pm every Saturday in June. You will find a van or truck waiting for your food donations. Just drive up, pop your trunk open and volunteers will transfer your food to the van. Volunteers wear masks and practice social distancing, but will stop and chat a bit – from afar. They will also offer you a cookie and a (root) beer. It is a tailgate after all! The list of preferred items is below. We also accept monetary donations. There are many ways you can help in this effort. Contact Judy Batterman for more information. In May, the food drive collected almost 3 tons of food! Please know you are making a difference.
