Grace UMC

We have revamped our “Category of the Month” Campaign to be more specific. We are asking for these specific donations OR monetary donations so that we can purchase items in bulk at a lower cost. Please make sure your checks/envelopes specify “OCC Donation” before placing in the offering plate or mailing to the church. We will continue to accept other items but are specifically highlighting these needs.

NOTE: All donations accepted regardless of the monthly category. Donation Box is located inside the back entrance door (bottom of steps). Reminder – NO used items, liquids or soap, food/seeds, weapons or scary/war related items.

MAY REQUESTS:

300-reusable, durable hard plastic cups or water bottles; 100-Small backpacks or drawstring bags

JUNE REQUESTS: 

100–mini flashlights w/batteries, or hand crank flashlights; 100 - mini sewing kits; 100 - inflatable beach balls
