****Support the Bread of Life Food Pantry

There are three ways you can support the Bread of Life Food Pantry:

1) Please bring in non-perishable food such as canned fruit, vegetables, beans or spaghetti and place in the grocery cart in the Narthax.

2) Or you could make a monetary donation to our food pantry by supporting the Greater Chicago Food Depository Annual Hunger Walk taking place on Saturday, June 26th at Soldier Field. Checks should be made out to GCFD and write "hunger walk" in the memo line. All money is used dollar for dollar for the purchase of food. You can receive a tax deduction letter for your gift.

3) You could also donate your time by volunteering on a Friday morning of your choice.

The Bread of Life Food Pantry is a shared community service with Living Faith and Bethel Lutheran Church. The Pantry is open every Friday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. in Bethel's Social Hall.

**** Please sign up for Altar flowers for 2010 to beautify the altar each weekend. The chart is located in the east entrance. Cost is $20 and you may designate the flowers in honor or memory of a loved one(s). Checks are made payable to Altar Guild

**** The Coffee Hour is an important time for friendship and fellowship after worship twice a month. We are in need of some additional coffee hosts for 2010. Responsibilities include bringing in coffee cakes and cookies and snacks (can be store bought or homemade), and setting up the table. You would have to do this once per year, and this can be coordinated with one or two other people. If available contact the church office at (847) 397-4372.
