5. St. Christine’s “Share the Sweetness”
As with everything else this year, our annual dessert collection for the St. Christine Soup Kitchen will be a little different this year. The Corpus Christi Social Justice Committee is asking for monetary donations to St. Christine Christian Service in lieu of the traditional goodies. The need is greater than ever, so please be as generous as you are able.
There are two ways to donate. You can pick up an envelope at the back of the church, available for the next three weekends, and return it with a check made out to Corpus Christi with Soup Kitchen written in the memo line (or mail in a check if you won’t be at church). Or, you can log onto the St. Christine Christian Service web page http://sccsdetroit.org/ and scroll down to the donate button to give with a credit or debit card.
Thank you in advance for being Christ’s Light in our little corner of the world.
