August is the official starting month for the Milton School District. Yep, I am sure the kids are thinking, “Didn’t we just get out of school for the summer?”. That also means that we are getting ready for a new year of ministry for the Panther Pack ministry.
We are restocking the shelves getting ready for school to start. September, which is the month we actually start to deliver meals, will be here shortly and we want to be ready for the first packing. Here are the items we are looking for:
Food Items:
Ramen Noodles | Canned Pasta (Pop Top Lid) | Soups, Stew, Chili (Sm. Container with Pop Top Lid) |
Fruit Cups | Individual Sized Boxes of Cereal | Cereal Bars |
Applesauce Cups | Pudding Cups | Oatmeal Packs |
Tuna Packs | Pop Tarts | Mac and Cheese (Individual Cups) |
Granola Bars | Breakfast Bars | Small Cans of Chicken |
The committee is recommitting to providing nutritious weekend meals to the children of the Milton Elementary schools. Pray for a great year of ministry and that the kids’ lives are touched by the generosity of the community.
Here is the first half of the year’s packing schedule.
