Donation Opportunities

Oak Forest members like to serve our world and in order to do that, donations are needed! Typically there are plastic bins or boxes in the Family Life Center lobby and the Sanctuary narthex for donations. Here are some items that the church collects monthly and at special times throughout the year:

Monthly:

Every first Sunday - Grains for Davidson County Crisis Ministry. Two-pound bags of flour and sugar.

Every second Sunday - healthy snacks for Hospice of Davidson County. Individually wrapped, non-perishable snacks like crackers.

Currently:

"Money envelopes" for the 17 church members going on a mission trip to Blackfeet Indian Reservation in November 2018. Take an envelope and write check for the amount on envelope (make out to Oak Forest UMC; memo line: Blackfoot) and deposit in offering plate.
