A N N O U N C E M E N T S  for Sunday, August 2, 2026…

Greece Ecumenical Food Shelf’s 17th annual “August Challenge” to Lakeview was officially announced last Sunday. This August we have been challenged to collect 2,000 pouches, or boxes, of RICE AND PASTA MIXES. Our small church will need your help to meet this lofty goal! On the last Saturday of August, we will hold our “Drive-In and Drop-Off” at church. You don’t even need to get out of your car.—and we will also thank you with a cup of coffee and a doughnut! We hope you will join in this exciting challenge that is such a blessing to our lakeshore neighbors. ~Joan Marvin & Linda Viney
