Bonus Bag Update (11/27/11)
SMEC Parishioners are the best! Not only did we bring in $540 for last week’s Bonus Bags; but three of our parishioners signed on for credit card charges for one year’s worth of monthly support! For the cost of a few lattes, you can provide our Outreach gang reliable $$ for year-round fresh food expenditures. Your $20 (or more!) donation will be gratefully accepted in cash, check or credit card. You, too, can be a part of this tremendous service to those in need…

OUTREACH BONUS BAGS (a feeding ministry of St. Margaret’s)
From the weekly SaintMail sent 12/2/2011: Outreach Bonus Bags has a new option for the Christmas Holidays! Drop by our table to find out more- in addition to the regular $20 Bonus Bag of fresh grocery items, we will also have a $40 Christmas Basket selection. Your $20 donations are always needed to supplement our weekly distributions. However, if you can spare $40, we also can create a special Holiday Ham Dinner with ALL the trimmings to be distributed Christmas week. Talk to Barb Gibson, Peg Leo, or Becky Hensley after services for more information.
