May Diaper Drive

During the month of May the Boards of Christian Service / Evangelism will host a Diaper Drive. Please bring disposable diapers of any size to the church (infant, child, and adult sizes) and join Lutherans for Life as they collect diapers again this year for area charitable organizations who serve women and their children, as well as seniors. Your generosity will benefit worthy life-affirming organizations including: Women’s Pregnancy Center, Esther House, Lutheran Hillside Village, Washington Christian Village, and Living Alternatives Pregnancy Resource Center. There will be a box in Room 10 for your donations.
