PRESBYTERIAN PANTRY CONTINUES TO OPERATE WITH PRECAUTIONS
July 14 & July 28, 10 am - noon
The Presbyterian Pantry will continue to operate, with changes in how the groceries are provided to our guests. The method to provide food for the Pantry will continue with the new procedures: everything will be pre-bagged and distributed at the entrance to the door on Howard St on normal pantry days (2nd and 4th Tuesdays from 10 am to noon.) This provides for the least amount of person-to-person contact, as guests will pick up the bags on the sidewalk table and bring them to their vehicles. Please continue to keep at least 6 feet between you and the other people in line. Masks are preferred.

HORIZONS Bible Study
Date TBD
The new study from Presbyterian Women is entitled “Into the Light, Finding Hope Through Prayers of Lament”. When the theme was introduced three years ago, it seemed an unusual topic, but that certainly has changed. The author, Lynn Miller, artist and author with a Doctor of Ministry degree, says “Weekly congregational worship rarely included opportunities to lament but perhaps it should. Lament is a proper liturgical response to the suffering and sorrow of the real world.” Stay tuned for more tidbits next month. If you are interested in purchasing a copy of the study, please let Nancy Siewert know, 920-609-2051 or dennis1829@att.net. The cost is $10 and comes in large print as well. Nancy will place an order in early August.
FEED MY STARVING CHILDREN
October 5-8 Tentative
While it looks unlikely that there will be an in-person Mobilepack in October, the final decision will not be made until the July FMSC Partner Board meeting. In the meantime, it is very clear that now there is an even greater need for meals to feed starving children around the world, and the FMSC organization is being creative in finding ways to safely pack meals, however at a greater cost. Therefore, we are asking for donations and prayers for FMSC. Please consider a gift to FMSC through our church.
Presbyterian Pantry - Month of July
For July, Pantry volunteers are asking for donations of laundry detergent or any canned and dry foods. You can drop them off at the office Mondays-Thursdays between 9:30 am and 2 pm. at the church on 200 S. Ashland Street. Because neither the Letter Carriers' food drive or the Scouting food drive are likely to take place before Fall, and we have depended on those food drives in the past to help support Pantry, we are concerned about having those supplies. You can also support the pantry through your purchases at Amazon Smile: Shop at
