Pride Bandanas
June
is PRIDE month. The JEDI Group (Justice, Equity, Diversity, Inclusion) has
rainbow Northwest Washington Synod Pride bandanas for sale. They are
available for a suggested donation of $8-10. JEDI purchased the bandanas from
the synod for $5, and the extra funds collected will go to purchasing more
books for the JEDI book library in the Narthex. Contact Sherry Grindeland,
sherry@salc.church or 425-746-2529, to get your bandana!
Food Collection for Hopelink
Hopelink is gearing up for their End Summer Hunger program to
support families with school-aged children. During the summer, these children
no longer have access to the feeding programs at school. During June,
Hopelink has asked us to collect Peanut Butter (about 16-ounce jars -
other non-peanut butters are okay); and Jelly or Jam (about
12-to-20-ounce jars) to support this program
Also, Hopelink always appreciates the paper bags we supply to them.
They are eager to get them and make them available to their clients.
