Saturday, October 26, 2024, was a great day to do something good for others as 567 volunteers came together at Lakeland Union High School and packaged 271,020 meals for Food for Kidz. Several members of Church of the Pines were spotted at the packing event: Holly Nash, Deb Harris, Sue Claflin, Sue Shapiro, and Sue Henning with her daughter, Leslee Bayer, and granddaughters, Hannah and Emma. Rich Klatt and past pastor of Church of the Pines, Pastor Erv Teichmiller, were there with their Rotary Club members. These meals will benefit nineteen local food pantries and will also be shipped to North Carolina, Romania, Liberia, and Haiti.
