Council approves donations to fuel banks
The monthly meeting of the Church Council was held in Copper Hill’s Fellowship Hall on the evening of January 7.
There were ten in attendance, including Pastor Kelvin and JoAnne.
One of the more important items discussed was our community charity donations. We will be sending checks to the fuel banks in Suffied, East Granby, and Granby.
At this time of the year, and especially with the frigid temperatures we’ve been experiencing, there is a big demand for fuel assistance. Fuel banks often have more requests than they can handle each month, so every contribution becomes important.
We never know where the donation will make the difference in keeping children warm and healthy, or an elderly person comfortable so they can stay in their own home. It could be a neighbor or someone we know in town. Whichever the case, someone in our community will be thankful for the help.
So, whenever you place your gift in the collection plate, you are not only helping to heat our church, but also helping heat someone’s home.
