They could also be given to other locations, such as shelters or Ronald McDonald House. Suggested dimensions are approximately 7 9 inches wide and 60 inches long.

We welcome and involve all people in the life of the family of faith no matter what their journeys so that they may experience the grace we have received from Jesus Christ. We celebrate our life together in worship, prayer, study of scripture, service and fellowship.
