Make a Holiday Food Pledge We need all the traditional food items for

Thanksgiving and Christmas! We are prayerfully asking for your pledge. Our goal at Loaves & Fishes is to provide a

turkey or ham to every family this Thanksgiving and Christmas, along with all the tradi-

tional holiday food. Please let us know if you, your group, organization, or church would

be able to pledge any holiday food items (turkey, ham, stuffing, boxed potatoes, canned

fruit, yams)! You can also make a monetary donation and we will buy the items for

you— we buy in bulk so your donation helps purchase lots and lots of the holiday

food items needed! Just make your check out to Loaves & Fishes and note “Holiday

Food” on the memo line. Any questions, please give us a call at 407-886-6005. Ask for

Lory or Karen.

Angel Trees

Christmas gifts are made possible by caring people

like you but it leads to lives changed by our Lord

Jesus Christ. Please consider putting up a Christ-

mas tree in your church or workplace with orna-

ments listing a toy on the back. Indi-

the unwrapped toy under the tree.

print labels for you, please contact
