Personal care items needed

Tomorrow is our monthly ingathering for the Necessity Pantry. The pantry provides personal care items for individuals and families in financial stress.

Needed items include shampoo, toothbrushes, toothpaste, disposable razors, shaving cream, bath soap, lotion, deodorant, laundry detergent, toilet paper and feminine hygiene and incontinence products. Cash donations are also gratefully accepted.

The Necessity Pantry is a cooperative ministry supported by the Church of the Resurrection in Blue Springs, St. Anne’s in Lee’s Summit, Trinity and St. Michael’s in Independence, and St. Mark’s Catholic Church in Independence.

Sign-up in the narthex

Please sign-up in the narthex if you are interested in attending a KC Mavericks hockey game as part of our church group on February 21 and/or April 4.

Games take place at the Cable-Dahmer Arena in Independence.

See Joe Owen if you have questions.

One service only at 9:30 am

The Annual Meeting of the Episcopal Church of the Resurrection will take place on Sunday, February 2 following the church service. We will have one service only on that Sunday beginning at 9:30 am.

A Potluck Lunch will follow the meeting. Couples and families are asked to bring a main dish and singles bring a side dish or a dessert.
