As in years past the St. Valentine Christian Service Commission will be conducting a blanket drive during the month of October. The blankets will go to the Salvation Army Dearborn Division. They have been very grateful in the past, and are eagerly awaiting our donations this fall. Here is an excerpt from a past thank you letter from the Salvation Army. “The Salvation Army in Dearborn Heights was the recipient of over 40 new blankets. Because of your thoughtfulness we are able to provide a warm blanket to the many homeless persons that are in need.”
You can drop off your contributions in the baskets provided at all Church entrances. Please help if you can.
Your Christian Service Commission
