We Care Hours

Tuesdays, 1:00pm - 3:00pm

Wednesdays, 9:30am - 11:30am

Thursdays, 9:30am - 11:30am

We Care is a ministry of Woodlawn Church!

The volunteers for the We Care pantry are working hard to provide a much-needed service to our community. The stories we hear are heartwarming and heart breaking at the same time. One of our volunteers is crocheting pouches to house a bar of soap which can also be used as a washcloth; we are looking for volunteers, who crochet, to help. This can be valuable to our homeless. We are also looking for help in stocking our pantry when food is delivered. If anyone is looking for a way to volunteer we could certainly use your help. If you can help with either of these services, please contact Leah at ltauburn83@gmail.com or Joanne at jcembry@comcast.net. Our Wish List for June consists of shelf stable milk, bars of soap, condiments (mustard, ketchup and mayo) and laundry and dish detergent (we see a big need for these items). As always, we thank our Woodlawn family for your continued support and donations. 

We Care because You Care!
