On Sunday, July 25th we will dedicate our year of recycling for Africa in the morning worship and celebrate with a party Sunday evening at 5:30 p.m. Our CRV recycling program has grown from a tiny amount about 8 years ago, when Kirk Gardener first proposed it, to $756 plus $600 in matching funds annual event! Our local Chapter of Thrivent provides the $600 in matching funds. This program has become a real life changing activity, saving many lives of our brothers and sisters in Africa. Who would have believed that by saving bottles and cans we used to throw away, we could make such a difference! Besides that, we helped the environment, and it didn’t take one penny! We need to celebrate and have a party! Everyone is welcome! Mark your calendar and come have a great time together. Feel free to gather Sunday evening from 5:30 p.m. on at 10435 Royal Crest. We will eat around 6:30 p.m. We have plenty of room for the kids to play, so it should be fun for the whole family. Food will be potluck style. Sign-up at church to indicate what you plan to bring or email Edie. Come planning on good food, great fellowship and a fantastic time! If you have questions call or email Edie Lott at 582-5362 or thelotts@gmail.com.
