Outreach

 We are scheduled to cater on  Tuesday, November 8  for the Conejo Free Meals Program.  The numbers of clients usually increase as it gets cooler outside, especially with rain in the forecast, so every donation will help.
As usual, please deliver food between 6:00 and 6:15 pm.  We will serve between 6:30 and 7:15 pm at our usual location in the main hall at Calvary Community Church.  If you can donate food or service, please contact me.  Thanks! Contact Elizabeth Bryant 805.498.4499.

As part of our Outreach Program, we will remember the Veterans this November by offering poppies at both services on November 6th.  The poppies are lapel worn then for the week and especially on November 11th, Armistice Day, the day when WW1 officially ended, and on the following Sunday called “Remembrance Sunday.  Poppies became the symbol of this annual remembrance of those who died in foreign wars in honor of Canadian Captain John McCrae’s famous poem “In Flanders Fields.”
