A group of 8th graders Johnny Fox, Nathan Delaney, Drew Israel, Jack Nedved, Donovan Nigg and Parker Ryther are hosting a clothing drive on the week of December 17th as part of their Clothe the Naked service project. All clothing donations will be given to Bidwell Riverside,a private non-profit organization in Des Moines that runs a food pantry and provides child care for local families. You can donate gently used clothing for men, women, and children. The donation boxes will be located at the back of the church and in the school’s alcove. In January, our group will donate our time working at the Bidwell Riverside pantry. Join us in clothing the naked this Advent and Christmas season. Thank you so much for you support of our Work of Mercy service project.
