HELP SUPPORT THE PEOPLE OF GUATEMALA
As we prepare for our upcoming mission trip, we invite you to partner with us in supporting the people of Guatemala. Our team plans to bring two suitcases filled with personal hygiene items to bless those we will be ministering to.
If you’re able to contribute, please place your donated items in the collection barrel located near the Welcome Center. We will be collecting during the months of May and June.
We also need two gently used extra-large suitcases to help transport these supplies. If you have one that you are no longer using, please contact Diane in the church office (716-683-0570 x9). Please do not bring suitcases to church.
Thank you for your generosity and for helping us share God’s love in a tangible way!
Suggested items: Adult toothbrushes, toothpaste, soap, shampoo, brushes, combs, hair clasps & ponytail bands, vaseline, vitamins (adult, elderly, pre-natal, children's gummies), children's toothbrushes & toothpaste, men's/women's deodorant, feminine hygiene products, clorox wipes, diaper rash cream, chapstick, antiseptic ointment for cuts |

| If you’re active on social media, you may occasionally see posts from people in our community searching for a church home. We’re grateful for those in our congregation who take the time to respond and recommend The Vine! We want to continue encouraging our community to begin attending church—or to return and reconnect. What better way to extend that invitation than through social media?
In the coming days, we’ll be posting daily invitations to join us at The Vine for Sunday service. We simply ask that you take a moment to share these posts with your friends and family. Together, we can reach more people and grow in God’s love! |
