Stake Service Project

The Fourth Quarter Stake Service project, bringing clothing and other essentials to more than 1,000 people living in need in the deserts near Rocky Point, Mexico, is in full swing. Collection boxes were placed in the halls last Sunday. Thank you to the YW and YM for their help in decorating the boxes, they look great. (Please note that the other wards have their boxes out as well.) Over the next four Sundays, through Dec. 21, we are collecting blankets, warm clothing (clean and in good condition all sizes), jackets (all sizes) and humanitarian aid kids. These include tooth brushes, wash cloths, small combs, soap bars and toothpaste. Additionally, cash donations and gas cards are being accepted to support this effort. Please give cash or gift card donations to a member of the EQ Presidency or Bishopric. You can also bring items to the Ward Christmas Party on Saturday.

Finally, we will need assistance delivering the collected items to the Cave Creek Building on Monday, Dec. 22. More details will be forthcoming on that.
