  • Green Bean Challenge

     

     

     

    Thank you everyone

    We not only reached our goal but surpassed it by collected over 200 cans of beans.  Your generosity will be much appreciated by those who make and those who receive the Thanksgiving Baskets.

    More challenges to come!!!!!!!!!

     

     

     

    The Mulrains have challenged our church members to donate 150 cans of green beans to the Leicester Food Bank.  These cans will be used for the Thanksgiving baskets distributed to needy families.  They have personally pledged that whatever we don’t collect, they will make up the difference.  Lets  make a difference in our community, I am sure we can meet the challenge.
