The changing of the seasons from summer to autumn re-energizes us with cooler temperatures and more organized activities. The collection of Kleenex, paper towels, and Lysol wipes was much appreciated by the two schools that received your donations. The schools receiving your contributions were the Orland Park School District #35 and Kelvin Grove School in Lockport. Thank you for participating in this project.
On August 13th, two members of the Mission Committee hosted an ice cream social for the residents of Peace Village Circle Inn. Everyone enjoyed their ice cream covered in sprinkles and whipped cream with cookies on the side. We played several games of Bingo with several winners and everyone had fun.
During the month of September, we are requesting your participation in collecting "pop tops" from your beverages, soup cans or any other items with "pop tops". These will be donated to the Ronald McDonald House in Oak Lawn who partners with United Scrap Metal by selling the "pop tops" to them. The funds from the sale will provide resources for families in need at the Ronald McDonald charities. We will be continuing with this collection all year long. There will be a container available on the coffee bar.
