Reaching Out

🥫 The Challenge Is ON! Starting Oct 4th and ending Nov. 22nd

Last year, you absolutely CRUSHED our fall food drive! Drum roll, please… 🥁 6,283 POUNDS! So now what??? Well… we have a new goal…This year’s challenge: 7,000 POUNDS! 🎯

This Sunday, look for the gray truck in front to drop off your donations. We’ll alternate between North Denver Cares Food Pantry and F.I.S.H. Right now, F.I.S.H is asking for jelly and jam! Please bring non-perishable food and toiletries only and check expiration dates. Diapers and wipes go to F.I.S.H. Weekday donations in the yellow bin at LCHope go to Anchor House.

📍 Sundays: Bring donations to BUMC
📍 Monday–Friday: Drop off donations at LCHope in Circle Dr. during business hours

Let’s see if we can beat last year’s 6,283 pounds and hit 7,000 pounds together!

**Remembering Our Saints**
As we prepare for **All Saints Worship**, we invite you to help us remember and honor the loved ones who have passed from this life into God’s eternal care.
During this special service, we will remember those who have died **since** **November 1, 2025** with a slideshow featuring their names and photographs.
If you have lost a loved one during this past year and would like them included, please send:
• **Their name**
• **A favorite photo(s) of them**
Please ***email*** photos and names to **kelly@lchope.org** by **October 12**.
