Peanut Butter & Jelly Ministry
Did You Know ... each week our peanut butter and jelly ministry makes between 150 and 170 sandwiches and delivers them to Mercy Soup Kitchen in Wyandanch to fee the hungry on Long Island? To do this, we go through about 17 loaves of bread, 8 jumbo jars of creamy peanut butter, 6 jars of grape jelly, 200 fold-over sandwich bags, and disposable gloves each week! We also use covered Xerox boxes for delivery.
You can help by donating any fo the items above as often as you can. If you would like to volunteer to be part of the "gang", please contact Doreen Andersson at 631-224-1071. It only take 1-2 hours, every 5-6 weeks. With everyone's help, we can be successful!
Did you know? The first envelope, marked Initial Offering, helps pay for the costs of the envelopes.
Please consider filling this very important envelope each year.
