Presbyterian Coffee Project
Many of you have already discovered the joy of
the Presbyterian Coffee Project! There is a permanent cart in
Fellowship Hall and we have sold LOTS of coffee, tea, baking
chocolate and hot chocolate mix. We have now added some
absolutely delicious chocolate bars! We do not make a profit on these sales— this
program is a ministry to our congregation and to the growers. All of
the small growers of the coffee, tea and chocolate are paid a living
wage in their countries—that is the basis for the Fair Trade/Equal
Exchange project. So, the next time you are in Fellowship Hall, you
can support social justice AND enjoy some outstanding coffee, tea
and chocolate!
Relay For Life
The Family Ministry Team, the Vanderbilt
Cancer Support Group and Vanderbilt sponsor a VPC Team for the
Annual Relay For Life for the American Cancer Society each April. It is a memorable experience for all. Share in the
spirit of many coming together to celebrate and support the many
lives touched by cancer. For more information, or to be a part of
the Relay Planning Team, contact the church office. Held at Gulfview Middle School (255 - 6th St. S., Naples)
Habitat For Humanity Work Days
At 7:30 a.m. every Wednesday morning, Habitat For Humanity workers
meet at VPC and take the church van to Immokalee to spend time
working to eliminate poverty housing in Collier County. They bring
a bag lunch, and a willingness to participate in building
communities that truly change lives. Tools and construction skills
are not necessary. Plan to arrive back at the church at
approximately 3:00 p.m.
Vanderbilt Tote Bags
These handsome green shopping bags,
made of recycled material, are available for purchase at the Fair
Trade Coffee Cart during coffee hour on Sundays and at the front
desk during the week. Suggested donation is $5 per tote bag.
Sponsored by the VPC Christian Witness in Public Life (CWPL) Team.
