What Can We Do? What We Can Do

There are two “needs” to be met.

One requires a committment to take training and volunteer for overnight shifts. The closest location to our church is Prince of Peace Lutheran Church on Higgins: they cover Friday nights in our area. Other locations and days are available. The next training date is December 1 at Our Savior’s Lutheran in Arlington Heights.

The other one requires a committment from a group of people or a team and has more flexibility of schedule. It might be possible for Holy Innocents/St Columba to “partner up” with another Episcopal parish or mission. Basically, it involves picking up soiled laundry “sets” from Prince of Peace and delivering them to be laundered at Alexian Brothers Hospital in Elk Grove Village.

Please see Ginny Gibbs this Sunday at Holy Innocents, or email the webmistress if you are interested in further information.
