The Daughters of the King are sponsoring a collection for the CAPWN Food Pantry.
This will replace our collection of personal hygiene items in June and July.  The Food Pantry is expecting a higher demand as the agencies that provide two meals a day to children and families will only be providing one meal a day in the month of July. This is due to a change in vendors.  We will be collecting June 25 and all Sundays in July. Please bring non-perishable items and place in the baskets in the narthex. Some suggested items include: cereal, peanut butter, canned tuna and meats, canned fruits and vegetables, pasta, dry beans, rice, masa harina, individual serving packages of fruits and vegetables, flour. Please check expiration dates. Thank you for your ongoing support of our community!
