School Supplies Delivered:
Thank you to all those within the congregation and members of the Woods community who generously donated school supplies for the teachers and children of Pleasant View Elementary School. Krista and David O'Brien represented our Chapel at the pre-school fair.
Thanks to the 40+ volunteers who joined the Outreach Committee since July 2025 for our successful Helping Hands food distributions. See below if you'd like to help us in a future month.
Volunteers Needed for Helping Hands food program.
What better way to helping families in need in our area by giving an hour or two of your time to Helping Hands, the Outreach Commintee's food distribution project. To learn more, please call Judy Snyder.
In July of 2025, we started our monthly food bank project, Helping Hands, for 10 families (over 60 people) who received our holiday food baskets last Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter. Since we are not asking for regular food contributions, you may be wondering how you can help with this project. An hour or two of your time would be a great help in connection with one of our food distribution days. Just this little bit of your time will boost your spirits while helping us to assist families in need by sharing our blessings. If you would like to volunteer or have your questions answered, please call me at 304-754-5806 (landline; texts not possible). Thanks for considering how you can help.
Judy Snyder and the Outreach Committee: Jo Ann Abell, Chris Cubby, Sheila Joy, Natasha Martien, Krista O’Brien (Vice Chair), Laura Powell, and Gayle Remenick,
