We delivered three carloads of winter coats, gloves, sweaters and scarves and more hygiene kits on Wednesday, Oct. 23. Relief workers at the distribution site said they need clotheslines and clothespins as well as insect-repellent spray. We are asking for monetary donations so we can purchase the needed items and ship them to the distribution site. You can donate at the church or give online here: https://givebutter.com/CvPrSe
