Last Thursday, Bob and Robert made the final delivery for the 2011 Summer Food Drive.  Over the past 9 weeks, our Summer Food Drive team, led by Bob and Penny Balfour, coordinated, sorted and prepared 100 sets of food to be given to families in need.  Head Start of Shawnee Mission brought this need to our attention, citing the families that could not afford lunches for their children during the summer months when school lunch programs shut down until school starts again.

The total value of the 100 sets of food was over $4,000!

Thank you to all of you who donated to the food drive!  We couldn't have met this need without your generosity.

And a special thanks to the team that worked in the heat to prepare all of the food for delivery.  If you see these folks out and about at the church, take a moment to bless them.   Thanks to Bob and Penny Balfour, Robert Brendlinger and Kathy Patch for being an amazing team!
