Let's Do It for the 18th Time

Every one of the past 18 years around Thanksgiving, we have had the opportunity to put our gratitude into action through our annual Thanksgiving Offering and Food Drop. As we reflect on the goodness of God and all He has entrusted to us, we are reminded that we have been blessed not simply to enjoy His goodness, but also to share it with others. As Scripture reminds us, "God loves a cheerful giver" (2 Corinthians 9:7).
 
Our Food Drop is one way we seek to live out the call to share our blessings with others. Through this project, we will stock the shelves of more than 30 food pantries, shelters, and hot meal programs throughout the Tri-State – providing food and practical help to individuals and families in our community. We collect a monetary offering, then we order the food, and then on December 12, semi truck loads of food will arrive at CFC. Volunteers will come together to unload, organize, and deliver the food to the pantries we are serving.
 
We believe the blessings God has poured into our lives should overflow into the lives of others. This is more than a food drive; it is an opportunity for the church to be the hands and feet of Jesus, demonstrating the love of Christ in a tangible way.
 
If you would like to participate, you can give online HERE (choose Thanksgiving Food Drop) or in person. We encourage you to consider this as an opportunity to give above and beyond your regular giving to CFC as we work together to bless our community. When giving, please be sure to designate your gift as "Thanksgiving Food Drop" so we can ensure that 100% of your contribution goes directly toward purchasing food for this project.
 
We are so thankful that our church family gives generously and looks for opportunities to serve. Let's take what God has graciously given us and use it to bless others!
 
If you want to volunteer on December 12, you can sign up HERE. Please prepare to be blessed as you are being a blessing! As always, church family, let us know if there is anything we can do for you, and we’ll see you on Sunday!
