appreciate that despite the turmoil swirling
around us all, you remain committed to our
common work of building a more just and
compassionate society.

HOLIDAY DONATIONS NEEDED
DIW Emergency Services Thanksgiving and Christmas food baskets ensure “working poor” American Indian families have food for the holidays — including turkeys. We ask congregations to support this effort — donations of food or money are welcome. Please bring donations between 10am–3pm, Monday–Friday. To arrange another time, please call Elsie Fairbanks at 651-789-3856. All support is greatly appreciated!
After a long and tiring day, our Project Home guests appreciate being able to take off wet shoes and socks and cuddle up with their children in warm, clean pajamas. Please consider a gift of new pajamas and slippers. All sizes are needed for men, women, boys, and girls. New reading materials for all ages are also appreciated — books, magazines, puzzle books, etc. Thank you for thinking of our families this holiday season!
MARTIN LUTHER KING BREAKFAST PLANNING
The next Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Holiday Breakfast celebration is in the planning stages — the 2012 Community Breakfast Planning Committee is holding meetings now. For more information, please contact Meghan Paul-Cook at 651-789-3852 or [email protected].
