SonShine Ministry maintains the food pantry so we can reach out to the members of our community who are having a difficult time financially. Our congregation supplies non-perishable items thru our monthly food drive and monetary donations, which are used to supply the freezer with meat and cheese.

We are currently looking forward to September when we will be filling Shoeboxes for Samaritan's Purse Operation Christmas Child, so save your shoeboxes and begin to acquire items to fill them. Decide is you are going to buy for a boy or girl and which age category 2-4, 5-9, or 10-14.

Suggested items include:

• Toys: Small cars, balls, dolls, stuffed animals, kazoos, harmonicas, yo-yos, jump ropes, toys that light up or make noise (with extra batteries)
  
• School supplies: pens, pencils and sharpener, crayons or markers, stamps and ink pad sets, coloring books, writing pads or paper, solar calculators, etc.
  
• Hygiene items: toothbrush, toothpaste, mild bar soap (in plastic bag) comb, washcloth and etc.
  
• Others: hard candy, sunglasses, flashlights (extra batteries) ball caps, socks, T-shirts, toy jewelry, hair clips, watches, small picture books, etc.

 Also remember that we will need to include a check of $7.00 or more for each shoebox to defray shipping costs. We will have the forms available at the Sonshine table in September.
