If you feel led to support this initiative please put new or gently-used soccer balls into the white bin near the piano in the Fellowship Hall. They would also like a pump for about every 10 balls. Soccer balls should be deflated due to limited space in the containers. If you can’t deflate yours, I’m sure Brian will be happy to do this. Thank you again so much!
