HURRICANE SANDY RELIEF
Are you interested in helping relief efforts
for Hurricane Sandy? In the next few weeks, APC will be sharing how
you can bring the love of Christ to those affected by this devastating
storm.
This week, we have a very practical way to help. Amy Foote, a child of the church, lives in Brooklyn and is collecting items for St. Jacobi Lutheran Church,
The church is acting as a main hub for donations, cooking meals and
transporting volunteers in car pools to the areas in Brooklyn, Queens
and Staten Island that were the most effected.
Bring your items on Sunday, November 11, during worship, and Amy will get them to the church in Brooklyn. Please pass the word to folks in and outside of the church.
