IT’S HOAGIE TIME!
We have received a donation of rolls from our friends at Centrella’s and we’d like to get some folks together in the church kitchen after the picnic on Sunday, June 12th to put together some hoagies that can be taken over to Project Share for lunch the next day!

Cassie says: “This would be a great project for male-bonding, don’t you think?”

Lunch meat and condiments provided. All we need are willing hands to make and wrap the sandwiches. Let Cassie know if you can help out.
