FEBRUARY 2023 - OUTREACH
SIDNEYS SAFE FOUNDATION
Let’s work together and reach out to help Sidney’s Safe Foundation provide snacks for hungry children in the Shoals.
We are asking for nonperishable, individually packaged, easy-to-eat food such as: jars of peanut butter, jars of jelly, boxes of saltines, Little Debbies, fruit bars, granola bars, peanut butter crackers, pop tarts, microwave popcorn, pop top canned foods such as: ravioli, beanie weenies or spaghetti.
Collections bins are in the fellowship hall and in the entryway hall. If you would like to make a monetary donation, please make your check out to FCC, and make a notation of either SSF or February Outreach. You may place it in the donation box in the hall.

THE HEALING PLACE
The Healing Place is a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit agency in Muscle Shoals. The Healing Place provides grief education and support services to children from low to moderate income families. Both group and individual services are provided in 49 local schools by Healing Place staff. Services are also provided in the office and groups are held in the evening for children and their family members. The primary counties served by The Healing Place are Lauderdale, Colbert, and Franklin counties. All services are free of charge to the children and families served by The Healing Place. The agency relies solely on donations, grants and fundraising events. Currently, The Healing Place does not receive state or federal funding.

TRUNK OR TREAT 2022
It may have rained, but we stuck it out and had a good time for those who came by! We had some pretty awesome costumes, adult and kids!
FIRE FIGHTER’S LUNCHEON
The Fire Fighter’s Luncheon was a success again this year! Many Fire Fighters stayed as long as they could and enjoyed everyone’s company after their meal and thanked us all as they were leaving. Thank you to Amy McCorkle, Ann Crane, Kay Stegall, Claire McCamy, and Tracy Futrell for supplying the delicious cakes! Also, thanks to Marsha Carter, Patsy Blasingame, Judy Goode, Kaye Fleming, Tonitia Butler, Claire McCamy, Tammy Hendrix, and Bob Hill who volunteered to serve, tidy up and make our Fire Fighters feel welcome and appreciated. Thank you all for your dedication to First Christian Church and this very worthy event.
