For January they are asking for “One-Pot Wonders…canned/boxed skillet dinners, soups, stews, etc.” Grocery stores run specials every week…pick up one or two items each time you go and bring them to church on Sunday.

Educating a Child - $300 pays tuition and uniform costs for a whole year for a needy child to attend an Episcopal school in the Dominican Republic. A special request to support two children in need of scholarships was received from Deacon Bob Snow, a missionary in the Dominican Republic who visited All Saints in October. Support for one scholarship has been given - one more is needed. Would you prayerfully consider contributing whatever amount you can toward this child's education? Her name is Maria Burgos - she is 12 years old, is in 8th grade and lives in Santiago where Dale Finn has gone the past three years on the diocesan medical team. Maria's picture is on the Mission Bulletin Board outside Gordon Mann Hall. Please make a check out to All Saints Episcopal Church, with: DR Scholarship noted in the memo line.
