Watch for the “SOXBOX”. It is coming soon. If

you would like to be a part of the “Pick-a-

pair” project, simply buy a new pair of sox

and put them in the box that will be in the

narthex starting Nov. 27th. They will be put in

zip lock baggies, labeled with sizes and hung

in the bushes around the church. Women’s &

Men’s white sox, colored sox of all sizes and

children’s sox are needed by the homeless

and disadvantaged among us. Love in Action

can be as simple as this. “How beautiful are

the feet of those who bring good news of

good things.” Romans 10:15

Ruth Circle of Love will meet in Rooms 1&2 on

Wednesday, December 7, 2016 @ 9:30 to

given them to Pat. We will then meet at Lou
