GIFTS OF HOPE—HYGIENE KITS FOR HURRICANE RELIEF & THE HOMELESS We are collecting small size toiletries to help our neighbors affected by the
recent hurricanes and the homeless. The small size toiletries will be used to
make Hygiene Kits on Wednesday, October. 25 during L.I.F.E. Together.
Toiletries will also be distributed to the Salvation Army, PACEM and Word of
Faith to share with the many homeless in our local communities. A new
toothbrush, toothpaste, bar of soap, shampoo, deodorant, shaving cream,
razor, comb/brush, wash cloths/thin, women’s personal hygiene products are
all small but very effective means of improving the quality of life many of our
neighbors are experiencing. Collection boxes are located in the Welcome Area
and at the upstairs hallway display through October 22.
