CROP Fundraiser
There is another fundraiser for CROP coming up on August 25th from 10 am to 10 pm at the Panda Express on 2750 Preyde Blvd in Lansing (Eastwood Mall area). You will need to show the flyer in order to get credit for CROP. I’m attaching it to this email and hard copies are available at church.

Chair Exercise Group
Would you be interested in attending a Chair Exercise Group once or twice a month? If so, please let Lynn Pulling know; or you can call or email the office.
Congregational Conversation
Mark your calendar for Sunday, August 23. After the worship service we will have another Congregational Conversation. We will review the information from the last congregational meeting, and then we will dialogue about the best way to move forward.
Outdoor Pantry Needs
We can always use crackers, shelf-stable milk (Dollar Tree has it), bread, tuna fish & tuna helper, soup, pasta and pasta sauce, canned vegetables and fruit, and bread. And if you see items that don’t need cooking (like the little kits of tuna and chicken salad with a couple of crackers and a plastic spoon) – please include these with your donations as they really help the homeless who don’t have any way to cook.
Pastor Peter's Sermons
We can provide copies of Pastor Peter’s sermons on request. Just call or email the office and give Janis the date of the one you want or the subject. We can email to you or mail a hard copy.
Neighborhood Pantry
Thanks to those of you that put food directly in or send in money so that Judy Hackett can purchase food for the pantry. Pilgrim has been able to put in food most days. Depending on the weather, fresh food such as fruits, vegetables, bread, cheese, yogurt and lunch meats have been purchased. Weather dictates some of the items that are put in.
REMEMBER: Food must have a current use date and purchased from a store. Dated and opened items are removed from the Pantry.
