Meals for the missionaries

We have a great opportunity to serve our local missionaries by providing dinners for them starting in April! The missionaries are not allowed to eat in our homes at this time, but we can provide a take-out dinner for them. The meals should be ready by 5 pm. The missionaries will provide take-out containers so you won't need to worry about that. If you sign-up, you will receive a reminder text or call.

 We understand that this is a trying time financially for many people, so please do not feel badly if you can't serve in this way at this time.  There are so many ways to serve others and this is just one of them!

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
Thank you for the many great things that you do!

I was in the temple for to do initiatories. I can’t remember if I had an appointment or I was just walking in… I think I was just walking in.  The PCC temple has a really good system for helping people who walk in w/out an appointment be able to do initiatories.
