Ink Cartridges & Cell
Phones Collected By Our MYF
Do you have empty ink cartridges
around your house? Old cell phones too?
Don't know what to do with them?
Well - bring them to the church and
donate them to the youth missions team. Collection
buckets are located throughout the church. All types of
ink cartridges are wanted. Cell phones cannot be broken
- they must be able to be re-activated. We will be
collecting them from now on! Thank You! This will be
done in place of recycling aluminum cans...that is no
longer profitable.
*******************
Backpacks for Kids
Beginning the week of October 12th, CUMC
will provide weekend backpacks for two meals per day for
20 students at Kennard Elementary School. The backpacks
will be packed up on Thursdays, sent home with the
children on Fridays, and returned empty for refilling on
the following Monday. Two or three people are needed per
week to fill the backpacks. We would like to have
4-5 teams to rotate weeks. In addition, sign-up sheets
for food items will be posted on the bulletin board in
the hallway.
There are shelves in the closet near the
Fellowship Hall where donations can be left for our
weekly food Backpack Program. We have found it to cost
about $5 per child per week for 4 meals on the weekends.
Donations of food or money are needed! We would like
healthy foods such as 100% Juice packs, pop tarts,
applesauce or other fruit packs, instant oatmeal, cereal
bars, cans of spaghetti or noodles and beef, cheese
crackers packages, etc.
If you would like to be on a team,
please e-mail Cheryl Vorhauer at
