MOM Pantry Needs for March
Every month, Middleton Outreach Ministry assigns each member church a different item to collect for the food pantry. March's need is: Canned Meats -- (especially Turkey and Chicken). Also, the MOM food pantry will soon allow clients to receive food as often as needed, and any extra gifts of non-perishable food items, personal care items, or financial donations to purchase food will be very much appreciated. Also, MOM is again participating in the annual Feinstein Challenge to raise at least $9,000 and collect 9,000 pounds of food and personal care products during March and April.
