Cereal Sundays and Souper Bowl Sunday benefitting Caritas of Waco
The first Sunday of each month we bring boxes of cereal, as well as spare change, to Sunday service. We donate that cereal to Caritas of Waco, which fights poverty and food insecurity in our area.
Additionally, coinciding with the Super Bowl each year, we raise additional money for Caritas. Before the pandemic, this was done via a fundraising potluck dinner in our Fellowship Hall, and we hope to return to that tradition in 2022.
