What has a bigger impact than a trio of 300-pound linebackers bearing down on a quarterback? You! LPC's impact can change lives when we huddle up to participate in this year’s Souper Bowl of Caring. Now, more than ever, our community needs our help. The number of families struggling to put good food on their tables continues to grow. The Souper Bowl of Caring is a national movement across the nation working together to fight hunger and poverty leading up to the Super Bowl football game on Sunday February 8th. Starting January 11 we will start collecting cans of soup and monetary donations. You will find the giant soup can in the narthex to place your donations in. To even kick it up a notch this year, our fellowship luncheon falls on Super Bowl Sunday, February 8, with our meal being homemade soups. The mission committee will be filling you in with more details as we get closer to.... SOUPER BOWL OF CARING.
Crafts for Missions/Prayer Quilt Group
