Jesus
said to Simon Peter, “Simon, son of John, if you love me, feed my lambs, tend my
sheep.” (taken from John 21: 15-17) Feed My
Sheep is All Saints’ outreach project for our local food pantries Bluffton Self
Help and The Deep Well Project. For October they are asking for “Macaroni,
Noodles, Spaghetti and Spaghetti Sauces.” Grocery stores run specials every
week…pick up one or two items each time you go and bring them to church on
Sunday. Contributions can be placed in the wicker basket located in the narthex.
It’s that easy!
