FOOD DRIVE MONTH
Month of Oct 2013 is the
annual food drive month. It is time to look towards
the holidays help prepare for extra holiday needs. Non
Perishable food items can be dropped off at Shepherd's Center in
Rogersville or Shepherd's
Corner in Sneedville.
Please help us help the people in our communities who
need it.
Food costs are up. Through
federal cutbacks, one of the primary funding sources
for our food program was cut to an all time low.

Christmas For the Children is the
County-wide Christmas and Screening center so names
names aren't duplicated over and over. Christmas for
the Children, Patsy Hurd, begins taking country-wide
applications beginning in October. Patsy also takes
names from other organizations that help children at
Christmas, thereby, creating a master list of names.
Some Churches, clubs, and businesses ask for names off
our lists to provide Christmas for needy children.
Some groups allow us to have parties in their
facilities. We purchase the gifts and prepare food
boxes for the families.
For more information- call 921-8044
This year we lost the ladies that did the shopping for
us. We need several church groups to shop for 25
children each, wrap the gifts and store them at your
church until the time for the parties.

Christmas for the Children is just around
the corner. This year we are combining again two
events into one. We are sponsoring the Christmas for
the Children Toy Run AND the Christmas for the
Children Cruise In. Both events will be the same day,
same time and at the same place.
So, if you ride a motorcycle and want to ride with us
in the toy run, then click on the link "TOY RUN"
for all the information you will need.
If you have an old car you have restored, or just one
you would like to show then click on the link "CRUISE
IN" for all the cruise in information.
If you don't have a car and don't ride a motorcycle,
we still have a place for you. Come on out and enjoy
the cruise in and check out the cars. You can be there
when we ride into the park on the motorcycles and
check out the bikes also. The best Christian band we
know, Exit 33, will be there to provide some of the
best music this side of heaven. Most of all, you can
help us raise money for the needy children of Hawkins
and Hancock Counties.
Mark your calendar for
Saturday, November 3 and
plan to be with us at
Rogersville City Park for
Christmas
for the
Children 2012!
