Help Stop Hunger!
MLC is again working with other churches to
support the food pantry at the Center for Siouxland. We will be
collecting food items the entire month of April. Grocery sacks will
be available in the Narthex, and bulletin inserts will list the
items needed. Please take a sack or insert and bring the items to
the church by April 30th.
