Coat Drive
In our continued response to address the needs of the homeless in Concord, the Outreach Committee is planning a coat drive to be held on Saturday, February 20th at Concordia Lutheran Church from 10am-2pm. Donations will be taken from January 10th February 14th. Jesus commands us to care for one another and says in Mathew 25:40 I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me. As we thank God for the comfort and heat of our homes, let us not forget those who have no home. Please look through your closets and tell your friends about our coat drive and show those in need that God cares about them.
Our Coat drive was a huge success. We collect 100 coats and purchased 50. We had 19 volunteers to help set up and distribute coats. We had 40 people come and take coats. We gave away 75 coats at the Church, and the rest we donated to Rise Again ministries. Thanks to all who made this event a great success. It is wonderful to help others and to join hands in Christian fellowship.
