COMMUNITY OUTREACH
Sunflowers for Ukraine
Sunday, May 15, 2022
11:00am - 1:00pm
Why sunflowers? In better days, Ukraine raised millions of sunflowers and exported 48% of the worlds sunflower oil. The sunflower is an enduring symbol of the country.
On Sunday, May 15, we will serve a light lunch in the Sunday School area after worship. There will be stations set up in Quist Hall for all ages to make paper sunflowers. We will have patterns and supplies to make the flowers, and plenty of crafty helpers to answer questions.
Our hope is to come together in recognition of Ukraine's humanitarian crisis, encourage prayers, and collect donations for Lutheran World Relief. They have feet on the ground with medical assistance, food, shelter, and refugee protection programs.
Please join us, and tell your friends. This event is open to the public. A suggested donation of $10 per adult includes crafting supplies and lunch.
The cupboards at Iglesia Santa Cruz are critically low on non-perishable items! They are in dire need of:
MASA ~~ RICE ~~ FLOUR ~~ OIL
We'll gladly do the shopping if you perfer to make a cash donation on Sunday.
If you prefer to donate to the matching funds challenge by check, make your check out to the SLO County Food Bank. Write Mt. Carmel Matching Funds Drive on the memo line so that your donation will be properly credited. Mail to:
Food Bank Coalition of SLO County
1180 Kendall Road
San Luis Obispo, CA 93401
Please do not route your food bank donations through Mount Carmel. Doing so will delay your donation and make tracking the matching funds challenge donations difficult for the food bank.
Thank you to Mount Carmel for your always generous spirit!
We'd love to hear from you. Please call or email with your questions or comments.
