Clothes and Shoes Needed

Family Promise of Greater Washington County needs gently worn clothes & shoes for children and adults.  They are currently serving over 40 individuals. Summer apparel is preferred, but we can store good quality winter wear as well.

Please bring to the church; contact Bonnie B at 503.464.6914 with questions.

Two Out of Three

Tomatoes, snapdragons, and more have been planted. 

We need to fill one more box to plant.  If you can bring a wheelbarrow and move the soil from the parking lot to the bed, we need you!

Please contact Pastor Brett if you can help, to arrange a time at your convenience.

Happy Summer!

Our first vegetable bed has been filled and planted!

As you can see in the second photo, another plot (front) has been prepared but not filled. A third plot needs to be leveled, the grass removed, and filled with soil. The soil has been delivered…now all we need is you and your wheelbarrow!

Please contact Pastor Brett to arrange a time to help, at your convenience.  Invite a friend and make it a work party!
