Summer Lunch Program for Children: The Conestoga Valley Ministerium, in cooperation with CVCCS, is again offering lunches for children who during the school year receive a free meal. Mellinger has been a part of this for the past number of years. We are looking for someone to be the Mellinger connection to the Faith Church location. This would involve helping to organize our members who want to be volunteers at Faith Church for the meals. The lunches will be served for nine weeks starting June 15. Contact Pastor Joe if you would be interested in serving as Mellinger’s connection to this service project. Cardboard will be collected next Sunday. (The first Sunday of each month) It should be placed in the trailer behind the Emmaus Road café.
