Dear Church Family,
We wanted to reach out and extend our heartfelt thanks and gratitude for each wish, prayer, card, and gift you have blessed us with this Pastor Appreciation Month. Your kindness and encouragement remind us just how grateful we are to serve in this community. Thank you for the privilege of allowing us to walk through life with you, in the easy and tough times.
Pr. Harold & Pr. Raven

Dear church Family,

This week, several neighbors have come to our doors seeking help with food. As many of you know, SNAP benefits have recently lapsed for some individuals and families, leaving a real immediate need in communities like ours. Your pastor has been praying and planning about how we can respond. We're excited to share that Woodmark church a community food drive, and we are proud and happy to join in. This a practical way for us to live out our vision to live generously and uphold one of our core values: service. We invite you to bring non-perishable food items this week to support the drive.
Most appreciated items include:
  • Canned meet (Tuna, chicken, etc.)
  • Healthy Cereal or Oats
  • Grains, Pastas, Rice, Quinoa, Barley, etc.)
  • Soup and Broths
  • Shelf stable non-dairy milks, (oat, coconut, soy, almond, and rice)
  • Flours, (masa, wheat), no bulk, please
  • Oils, (vegetable, canola, corn, olive, etc.)
Please ensure all donation are unopened, unexpired, and undamaged. This is just one of the ways we hope to respond to the needs around us. More opportunities to serve are on the way, so please stay tuned. If you'd like to help organize or volunteer, please let one of the pastors know. Together, we can make a meaningful difference for our neighbors.

With gratitude and hope your pastors.
