peanut butter
canned meats
vegetables
oatmeal
paper goods
diapers
baby formula

 If you would like to volunteer for this important ministry, please contact

Extravagant Generosity

A retired minister once remarked, “The last part of a person’s life that Christ seems to gain Lordship over is their checkbook.”  Jesus taught that we can not love both God and money.  John Wesley counseled disciples: make all you can, save all you can and give all that you can.  A lack of generosity, Wesley believed, results in spiritual de-formation involving pride, greed and materialism which seriously undermines our love of neighbor and of God.
Extravagent Generosity is a sign of good Stewardship!
