Lake Sawyer Christian Church to launch collection for charitable organizations

Published 4:21 pm Monday, January 20, 2014

Lake Sawyer Christian Church in Black Diamond plans to initiate the biggest collection of needed items for the community that has ever happened in the church’s history on Sunday, Jan. 26.

They are collecting non-perishable food, new gloves, new socks, new or gently used blankets, and new or gently used jackets for adults and children. Their goal is to collect enough items to fill four giant produce bins (4ft x 3ft x 2ft) with donated items. The community is invited to help in this goal.

All items will be donated to local charitable organizations: Union Gospel Mission, Tree House, Black Diamond Food Bank, and Storehouse.

“Those in need often get overlooked during the cold months after the holidays and we want to be able to provide for them in their time of need. We want to help support our community in the forgotten times,” says Nick Robertson, Director of Missions and Ministry.

Bring items with you to Lake Sawyer Christian Church located at 31605 Lake Sawyer Road SE in Black Diamond at 9 a.m. and 10:45 a.m. on Sunday, Jan. 26.
