Through Easter Sunday, the Social Ministry and World Outreach Committee will be collecting items for Lutheran World Relief personal care kits, with a stretch goal of assembling 258 kits in celebration of First Lutheran’s 258th birthday this year!
Items may be dropped off on Sunday mornings or in the church office during regular office hours. Each kit consists of:
- dark colored, light weight bath towel (between 20″ x 40″ and 27″ x 52″)
- 2-3 bath-size bars of unscented or lightly scented soap equaling 8-9 oz., any brand, in original wrapping
- adult size toothbrush in its original packaging
- sturdy comb
- metal nail clippers (attached file optional)
Monetary donations will also be accepted; checks should be made payable to First Lutheran Church with ‘Personal Care Kits’ written in the memo line. Funds remaining after the purchasing of items will be donated to the Lutheran World Relief Quilt & Kit Shipping Fund.
We hope you will join us in providing tangible hope to our neighbors in need!
