Jazz and Good Food- February 24th!
On Friday, February 24th, we will once again welcome the Centralia High School Jazz Band for an evening of jazz and good food. While the jazz band entertains us, we will feast on hamburgers and salads. We’ll start serving at 5:30 p.m. The band starts playing at this time as well. This is a unique event for our church and a wonderful one to invite friends and family to (especially friends and family who don’t have a church home). For more information, or to volunteer to help or bring a salad, talk to Tom Peterson.
Manna Bag Packing- February 12th!
First question, what are Manna Bags? Manna Bags are pre-packed bags of nonperishable food that you can carry around in your car and hand out to needy individuals. Have you ever seen someone standing at the end of a freeway off ramp and wanted to give them something other than money? Manna Bags are the answer. So come to the church at 10 a.m. and help pack Manna Bags. Then you can take a couple with you and keep in your car. It’s a great way to bless those in need.
