River Community Church

It was a bit of an eventful week at the "River."  Tuesday's rain was more than our drains could handle, wo we ended up with a small lake in the front, and a bit of water backed up into the east end of the fellowship hall.  But the rain stopped in time and the water drained out without any damage.  We had several volunteers trimming trees and bushes and cleaning out gutters and downspouts. There was some electrical wiring done.  The fire marshal's annual visit was pretty easy this year, We had to replace a battery in one emergency light, and a few things were piled too close to the ceiling in a storage room (This is a new category to me, but each inspector has his own approach to what he sees.)   

Last week we got a huge order from HACAP for the food bank.  It is now well stocked with all but a few items, but we have used up our cash reserve in that account. We can always use contributions of cash, or meat products, or paper products.  See the list elsewhere in this newsletter
