You know when your church is on the right track when the usual donated Palm Sunday flowers are replaced by a large assortment of bags and packages of donated food for the hungry.

Our Faith in Action group supervises the twice-yearly donations with bags furnished to our members with a list of preferred items. They are then provided to NourishPHX (formerly ICM) for distribution. Of course, monetary donations are accepted as well. This year we collected 905 pounds of food. Most ever, and that after just coming back from COVID!
