2. Walk through a natural NW forest, part of a conservation area near our home, requiring about 2 miles round trip on mostly level trails (a little uphill here and there, but moderate). We will become familiar with native trees, shrubs, ferns, & flowering herbs as pathways to knowing them for survival. This is a natural conserve on the upper Key Peninsula area.

Fort Flagler Trip
Jul

Fort Flagler Trip

Join us for a beautiful hike at Fort Flagler State Park on Sat. July 25th

This is an easy to moderate 5-mile stroll along bluff, meadow and forest.

The views of Admiralty Inlet, Port Townsend Bay, Whidbey Island, etc., are excellent. Along the way we will have the opportunity to explore some of the fort's well-preserved structures so bring a flashlight with you - some of the semi-underground passageways are dark. Be sure to pack a lunch for a picnic at the park's beach front day use area after our hike. And there is a wonderful little country store where we stop for ice cream on the way homel

Fort Flagler State Park is about a 90-minute drive from Gig Harbor. Meet at PLC at 7:00 AM and return by 4:00 PM. The State Park requires a Discover Pass for parking and we can car pool for those who do not have one.

Please sign up at the welcome table or e-mail Bob.shamblin@yahoo.com by Sunday July 19th.

Angel Food Bank Fundraiser & Independence Day Celebration
Jul
5

Angel Food Bank Fundraiser & Independence Day Celebration

Join us July 5th right after church service for an afternoon of great food and a great cause!

The Angel Family will be cooking up authentic El Salvadorian BBQ. The food is free, and donations are warmly suggested to support the Angel Food Bank.

Who we help: 🇸🇻 The Angel Food Bank in El Salvador currently provides 10 neighbors with steady support, basic groceries, clothes, and help coordinating transportation and assistance for medical appointments. We focus on people in the remote parts of El Salvador who fall through the cracks: those without government assistance, living with medical conditions, or without family nearby, including many elders. A friend of the ministry coordinates directly with each person to get them exactly what they need.

How it works: We keep a stocked storage room of grains and non-perishables, and pick up fresh vegetables as needs come in.

What your donation does: We've already secured our own space, so rent isn't a worry. Now we're working to make the food bank fully self-sustainable. One big project is repairing the on-site water source so it can reliably provide water, which matters a lot since supply runs short in some of the communities we serve. We're also preparing to buy grains directly from local farmers, supporting their businesses while we feed our neighbors.

Our goal is simple: grow enough to reach more people who need help but don't know where to turn.

Come hungry, bring your family, and help us celebrate while giving back. 🇺🇸
