HATS, MITTENS, SOCKS, AND COAT DRIVE
Collecting now through November 20
FLC is now collecting new or gently-used hats, mittens, socks, and coats to be distributed to our local schools. Containers are in the gathering area, drop off Sundays or during church office hours. 

TOYS FOR TOWN
Collecting now through early December
Farmington Lutheran is a drop off site for Toys for Town. A table and collection bin are located in the Gathering Area, feel free to drop off any time during church office hours or Sunday mornings.


FOOD SHELF VOLUNTEER NEED: Shoppers
Starting January 1 we wish to add a few more shopping appointments to our client schedule to enable more access. Increased appointments mean we have an increase in need for regular shift workers to assist with shopping and restocking.  One person is needed on Mondays from 2-4 and one from 4-6, and one is needed on Thursdays from 12-2. The commitment we are looking for would be weekly but subs are available to fill in for vacation, appointment, etc. and you don’t need to find your own sub. If interested, please contact Karen Brownawell at 651-356-2980 or rhpositive03@yahoo.com. It would be great to get you started soon so we are all set for the new schedule in January. Training is provided.
