President Wheatley facilitated a generous donation from the church
for LINK Against Hunger in January.
Lisa Lombardozzi, a volunteer for LINK Against Hunger
was given $1,000 worth of food to fill their Herndon pantry shelves after
they were depleted over the holidays.
Brother Tom Pocock at the Bishop's Storehouse gave her a tour
and an overview of the storehouse. Now the Herndon Ward is teaming up
with churches in the Ashburn/Herndon/Sterling area to volunteer
on a regular basis with this community based organization.
Each auxiliary will be stepping up to include annual service projects
for the LINK program. Some of the services may include picking up
and delivering food to LINK recipients, rotating food, and organizing and
cleaning the pantry located next to the United Methodist Church in Herndon.
