03-28-25 Update from Mary

Friday, March 28, 2025

SPL Hunger Warriors’ major concern this week is getting the word out to make your April Food donations early due to our early pick-ups for Easter. Therefore, COG – Community Of Goodness – members do your best to drop off your food donations on the Hunger Ministry shelving at Church or at the Levtzow garage on the Southwest Corner of Dover Center and Bassett Roads (2454 Dover Center is the Address with driveway off Bassett Road) by midnight April 10.

The 37th Annual Walk For Hunger & 5K Run to help Hunger Network’s 72+ Programs is at the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo on Saturday, May 31. Team Hunger Warriors needs your help by becoming actively involved. Registration is only $20 to be a Walker or a Cheerleader to cheer the Walkers and Runners on, $40 to be a Runner, and the $70 (discounted $10) for a Family of 4 walkers. These fees cover one’s admission to the zoo and a Walk T-shirt. If you have trouble registering on line, simply send a check for the correct amount made out to Hunger Network.

Please visit Hunger Network to sign up on Mary’s Team!!

St. Paul Lutheran Hunger Warriors still need Food Donations throughout the summer months; so, let us all try to bring one or two food items when we are able to attend Church this summer: peanut butter, GRAPE JAM, Stew, Corned Beef, WIDE NOODLES, tissues, toilet paper, paper towels, canned vegetables, CANNED SLICED PEACHES, CEREAL, oatmeal variety packs, SPAM, canned Chicken Breast, RAMEN NOODLES, snacks for children. We need the above food items by Thursday, June 20, for the Immanuel Hunger Program Delivery. Bless you for putting the needs of others as a priority.
