The annual Deacons Food Drive gets underway on Sunday, Oct. 6, and concludes on Sunday, Oct. 13. The Deacons will be on hand following worship each morning to accept your donations of non-perishable foods on behalf of our mission partner the Urban Outreach Center NYC.

This year the Urban Outreach pantry is in particular need of plastic jars of peanut butter. If you can’t make it to church either Sunday, you may drop your contributions at the 55th Street reception desk during the week.

For our extended family, you can send canned tuna or peanut butter from your favorite grocery delivery service to the church, to the attention of Natalie Wardius. Set delivery to Deacons of Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church, 7 W. 55th St., New York, NY 10019.

Thank you for your generosity!
