Children’s Sabbath Snack Drive

Yesterday, our Manager of Family Ministries, Piers Fetters, dropped off the snacks the congregation so graciously donated to ChildServ’s Southside office. These snacks were collected for our Children’s Sabbath Snack Drive to support Childserv’s ongoing work with local foster children.

Kim Coffing, ChildServ’s Director of Faith & Community Relations had this to say to the congregation: “Our Cottage Grove staffers were deeply touched and psyched by First UMC’s generosity! Just think of how the kids will respond!!! Looking forward to the good things that will unfold among hearts, minds, souls and futures through this partnership with ChildServ and First UMC, Chicago!”
