The Bishop's Round-Up for Hunger

If you're keyed into the calendar of the Kansas East Conference, you know that tomorrow is the Bishop's Round-Up for Hunger. We'll be sending four youth, two adults, and one Elizabeth to the lock-in tonight and they will help unload, sort, and load round-up contributions tomorrow. But Coffeyville First will go on collecting items until December 16. This is because we have again designated everything we collect for local distribution, whether directly through the church (e.g. Christmas Baskets for those in need), or indirectly through Genesis and the Salvation Army. This year we're again focusing on collecting money and non-perishable food items. We're unable to take clothing.
