JANUARY
Shades of Love:
An Evening of Love Songs
​
A concert is in the works! On Saturday, February 6, the Co-op will be hosting a free-will benefit concert in continuing efforts to raise money for a new van. We will start the evening with songs of praise from the Lighthouse Praise Team; commencing with grateful hearts for the blessings in what we do. The Program follows with featured local artist Debbie Wuitowicz singing original songs of love. Her music expresses the many "Shades of Love:" from love for that special person to love for our families and friends to the ultimate love of our heavenly Father and the sharing of that love in the work of our ministry. Cookies and Punch refreshments will be served. We hope you will plan to join us and enjoy "An Evening of Love Songs."
New Church Joins the Co-Op
St. John United Church of Christ has officially joined the Co-op. Situated across the street from Episcopal Church of the Redeemer on Reid Avenue, St. John will be offering a Free Clothing Pantry on the third Thursday of every month from 3:30-5:00pm. This new event to our calendar was planned to work in conjunction with Redeemer's Hot Meal offered the same afternoons at 5:00pm. Guests are invited to come out of the elements, shop for any needed clothes, then enjoy a hot meal across the street.
We would like to offer a warm welcome to site coordinator Leon Clever and all of the St. John volunteers. We are so grateful for the service you will be offering. We look forward to working together with you in efforts to best serve and care for our community.
Clothing donations are gladly accepted. Best donations include seasonal weather appropriate items, such as coats, sweaters, sweatpants/sweatshirts, boots, etc. at this time.
Please contact St. John UCC at (440) 244-5440 to arrange for donation arrangements.
