There will also be an activity that is a bit different.  Example would like to write letters to the men and women serving our country in the armed forces.  We will write the letters during the event.  However, we would also like to collect donations that we can send our military heroes as a small gesture of thanks.  If you would like to show your appreciation please bring any of the following items:
  • Animal crackers - no frosting
  • Small packs of peanuts and sunflower seeds
  • Blueberry pie filling

Example will box up the donations and send them to the troops via Mount Clemens Kiwanis Club. 

The Lord has blessed all our lives with grace, mercy, peace, hope and salvation through His son, our Savior, Jesus Christ.  This is one small way we can respond to the all the gifts that God has seen fit to give us. 
"Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In His great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead." I Peter 1:3
