Picture Bulletin Board - Thanks to those that have sent in their new pictures. New pictures are on the bulletin board with more to come. Margaret is still collecting family pictures to update our picture bulletin board.

Nonperishable Items - "Blessed are those whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the Lord their God. He is the Maker of heaven and earth, the sea, and everything in them—he remains faithful forever. He upholds the cause of the oppressed and gives food to the hungry." Psalm 146:5-7(a) Thank you for your donations during the month of June. For the month of July we'll be collecting new school supplies. A copy of the attached image will be in our mailboxes.

Niagara Christian Gleaners - Adding a Third Dryer - NCG has decided to add a third food dryer to our operation. The expectation is that:

We will smooth out operations by spreading the volume of food over three dryers instead of the existing two dryers.
Provide an immediate backup solution for unexpected breakdowns.
Allow for scheduled maintenance shutdowns without impacting volunteer participation, production flow and produce volumes. We are expecting the cost of a third dryer installation to be $500,000. We are grateful that we have $200,000 currently in reserve from our recent building expansion, leaving us with $300,000 to raise towards this latest endeavor.

We commit all of our work to the Lord and we never take your support for granted. We are continually blessed by individuals like you who care deeply about this mission and have already stood with us in countless ways. We now invite you to help us take this faithful step forward.

We receive no government funding and provide our food aid free of charge to trusted distribution partners. As such, we rely entirely on the generosity of those who share our calling. Please consider contributing to this important project via our donation page.

Participation - If you would like to participate in A/V ministry, song leading, praying, sharing communion thoughts, reading scripture, family time announcements or teaching/ helping in the Sunday School/Wednesday night program, please reply to this email or speak to Noel, Megan or Margaret.
