2023 Thanksgiving Food Collection


Food Collection

 

On behalf of the Board of Evangelism/Social Ministry I am writing to request the assistance with the 2023 Thanksgiving Food Collection.

 

 Food may be dropped off on Sunday October 8, 15, 22, 29, and on November 5, 12, 2023. The last day for food collection will be on NOVEMBER 12. Distribution of the Thanksgiving Food Baskets will be on Saturday, November 18. 

 

We welcome various types of can food items such as soups, beans, pasta, fruits and vegetables; as well as boxed starch items such as rice, and instant potatoes.  We can also accept boxed cereals, cake mixes, and can gravy. Low sodium food items are requested as some of our recipients have special diets.

 

Anyone who would rather make a monetary donation may do so by writing a check out to St. John’s Lutheran Church and MUST say HUNGER FUND in the check’s memo.

 

*If anyone is aware of a family that needs help, please contact me at 646-469-7891 and I will add them to our list. 

 

Thank you for your thoughtfulness and continued support.

 

 

Sincerely, 
Joy Hope Rouse
Chair of Board of Evangelism

St. John’s Lutheran Church Prayer Chain

phone    

 

We are always seeking additional members of the

congregation who would like to be part of the prayer chain.


     Being part of this is quite simple and very rewarding.

The way the chain works is that prayer requests are phoned into Anita Neitzel at (718) 442 2519. She writes down the request, prays, and then passes the prayer request on to the next person. If no answer, she leaves a message and calls the next person on the list to keep the chain of prayer going. When the last person on the chain receives the prayer request, they will let Anita know.

 

         Please pray about your participation and call Anita Neitzel at (718) 442 2519 if God leads you to be part of this ministry.

 

Thank You and God Bless You,

The Prayer Chain Participants
