Please match the first letter of your last name to the wish list. We will be collecting the items for two weekends – August 20 & 21, and 27 & 28, and will be packing them on Tuesday, August 30th. Collection boxes will be at the entrances to the Church. Thank you!

Financial donations to help defray the shipping costs are also greatly appreciated.
