In response to God’s generosity, that we experience in everything from the bounty of creation to forgiveness in Christ, the month of November provides us with a variety of opportunities to extend that generosity to the world around us.  You can give: 

• Items for college care packages (due Nov. 10)
  Remember that awesome feeling when you got a notice in your college mailbox that you had a package to pick up? We are hoping to spread a little cheer to our college students this fall by mailing them a care package! We are collecting donations of items or monetary donations to purchase items for our 16 college students!  We are taking donations of gum, ramen noodles, granola bars, (single size)-cookies, crackers, and pretzels. Please put them in the box in the narthex by November 10. Mark any monetary donations with the memo “college care packages.”
• Blood to the Indiana Blood Center (Nov. 17, 8am-12pm). Sign up here: https://donate.indiana.versiti.org/donor/schedules/drive_schedule/131210.
• Ingredients for pumpkin pies for The Caring Center  (due Nov. 22)
• Giving Tree items (due Dec. 1)
