** G.R.A.C.E. notes for this week.
Wednesday Summer Lunch in the Park is underway. We will go weekly through August 9th. Please share with your church members, family, and friends that we will provide a meal beginning at 11:30 a.m. until 1:00 p.m. This meal is for anyone (not just children). Dine at the park or carry-out. Please share: The Second Harvest Food Bank will be delivering weekly meal bags on Mondays this summer from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at DeGraff Park. The program will run from June 4th to August 7th. Our thanks to Riverside Local Schools staff and students who are stepping up to handle the distribution this year. According to Peak of Ohio (posted on their website on Friday): Every child is eligible for a bag containing five breakfasts and five lunches. Adults and parents may pick up bags for children in their households. Weekend bags will also be available IF the parent/guardian fills out a one-page form for eligibility. The weekend bags contain extra meals and snacks to help throughout the weekend. Remaining Schedule for meals: July 12 - Stony Creek July 19 - Quincy Methodist Church July 26 - Philadelphia Lutheran August 2 - Stony Creek August 9 - G.R.A.C.E. will host. We are thinking pizzas, veggie bags & dips, fresh fruit, bottled water and/or juice drinks, dessert or snack items. We will need some help putting things together but funding will be provided by G.R.A.C.E. donations already received. ____________________________________________________________ ** 1st Wednesday Kids Club is done for the school year, and we are beginning to explore what next year will look like.

We will be assisting G.R.A.C.E. with the free lunches in the park on Wednesdays during the summer. Our Church will be providing lunches on June 14th and July 5th. We will prepare the meals at Church and serve them over at the park. Sarah will buy the items we need to make Walking Tacos for June 14th along with fruit cups, Rice Krispy treats and juice boxes. We will decide later on the menu for July 5th which might include grilled hot dogs. More details to come. We will plan to have the free community produce tent again this summer in partnership with New Beginnings Church. The tent will be set up around the end of June or first of July at New Beginnings and stay there until sometime in September. Please share this info with local gardeners who may want to donate some of their harvest to the tent. To wrap up the summer we will set the Free Sale for Saturday, August 5th. So we will start the set-up the previous Sunday after Church and take donations to sort and display July 31st through August 3rd from 6 to 8 p.m. More info later on this. - Sue Walls, Missions Chair ** We are now collecting instant oatmeal for the Five Loaves Food Pantry.
