Crop Walk
We are participating in the Dayton CROP Hunger walk on Sunday October 12 at Shiloh Church at 5300 Philadelphia Dr. Folks gather at 1:00 p.m. and walk begins at 1:30. This walk provides life saving support, emergency food sources, seeds, tools and programs that help feed families in crisis. This year's theme is Walk, Give, Change the World. CROP Walk is a 55 year Church World Service movement across 500 communities. The
Dayton Walk donates 25% of every $ to the Dayton Foodbank. Foodbanks across the US have lost so much aid from the Federal Govt. Our foodbank can use all that is donated. Every step and every donation helps end hunger. You can use the envelopes provided at Dorothy Lane or you can go on line and find our Dorothy Lane team and donate there. You can walk by getting a walker envelope for donations or an envelope for your donation and not walk. We welcome all support. Thank You.
Christian Education

Access to Excess. Please let Connie, Susan, or Michael know if you will be able
to help with this event!
Sunday School begins October 6th at 10:00am over Monsters in the Bible.
