YOU can HELP the Community Care Fellowship in the following ways:

 Community Care Fellowship requests that you help in their ministry to the homeless and poor by donating the following items:
socks – all adult sizes need
men's briefs – medium, large, and extra large. The need is
critical, as of this morning Community Care had no men’s briefs
at all.
empty plastic grocery-type bags
instant oatmeal
coffee – regular, not decaf, and ground so it can be used in a percolator

Also, we are in desperate need for volunteers who can help with the registration desk and hygiene room on Wednesday mornings (9:00 to 12:00). Currently we have only one volunteer on alternate Wednesday mornings. If you have questions or would like to volunteer, please contact Rev. Pat Freudenthal at 227-1953.

There is a great need for immediate financial gifts from those individuals and local churches who feel that it is crucial that we minister to the poor and homeless. As of noon on Wednesday, October 26, the Community Care Fellowship is $25,000 in the hole. The Fellowship is experiencing increasing, almost unprecedented, need for its services in the midst of what can be called national “compassion fatigue” after numerous disasters in the U.S.A. and abroad--hurricanes, tsunamis, floods, tornados, pestulanceand earthquakes. Send checks to Community Care Fellowship, 511 South Eight Street, Nashville TN 37206. Or bring check, money order, cash, or piggy banks by the office of the Tennessee Conference treasurer, 1110 19th Avenue South, Nashville, TN 37212. Make sure any check is earmarked for the Community Care Fellowship. Questions? Need further information? Contact Rev. Pat Freudenthal at 227-1953
