The Upper Room

There will be a basket located in the fellowship hall to collect nonperishables for the Upper Room Food Ministry. You may bring canned goods and dry goods anytime and drop them off. The Upper Room is feeding people in our community a hot meal daily as well as special holiday meals. Any thing you can bring to help them is greatly appreciated. If you would like to volunteer to help them deliver meals or help cook/serve, please reach out to them on their Facebook page. Thank you so much! And if you know of someone who is in need of a meal please call to preorder a plate! 205-269-6953

BackPack Buddies

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL YOUR HELP in stocking the shelves for Backpack Buddies. We served around 55 students at HMS and HHS weekly last year, we anticipate more this year. For the month of March, items needed are Pop-Tarts and fruit snacks. Items can be dropped off in the Slaughter Fellowship Hall or the church office. 

If you have any questions, please contact Elaine Frix (205-269-6525) or Tammy Gaskin (205-269-0215).

Helping Hand

Thank you for your continued support for the month of February. This month the Helping Hand committee served three families with help on their power bills. Additional assistance was given to a family in need of help on their heating/gas bill. The Harvest of Hope monthly contribution was increased and provided for continued support. The Littleville Backpack Buddies program increased it’s numbers. Helping Hand provided the monthly contribution with this program.

Our committee will meet next month on Thursday, March 19th, 2026 from 10-12:00 in the Genesis classroom in the Slaughter Fellowship Hall. We would love for you to join us.

As always, we thank each of you so very much for your continued support and prayers that are offered to this committee throughout the year. The contributions that are given at the altar on Communion Sunday also go to this committee. Without your help, we would not be able to provide assistance to these families. We appreciate ALL of your prayers and support as we work to build His Precious Kingdom.

In His Prayers,

Dwight, Lelton, Diane, and Tammy

Nell Corbin Ladies Circle

The month of February was as sweet as a Valentine candy. This month, 41 faculty members at Haleyville Middle School were served with goodies from the Sunshine Cart. The Nell Corbin & Susanna Wesley ladies’ event on Saturday 21st was very fun, entertaining & informative. We had 19 women in attendance. We want to give Vickie Barr a big thank-you and praises for her presentation. She worked very hard instructing us on how specialty canning works. She demonstrated how to can blueberry muffin cake, salsa, potatoes, & even French Fries!! Some even got some hands-on experience. If you missed out don’t worry as we will be having more of these types of events soon.

The ongoing project of collecting non-perishable food items for the Upper Room Food Ministry will continue. A basket has been placed in the Slaughter Fellowship Hall to collect your donated items. Next month the circle will be meeting on March 15th - we will meet in the fellowship hall for breakfast at 7:00 am & then adjourn to the Genesis room around 7:30 for an inspiring meeting.

Operation Christmas Shoeboxes

March's items are games - Hot Wheels and Matchbox Cars! We need at least 120 cars!! These can be bought very inexpensively at Five Below, Dollar Tree, Wal-Mart, and in bulk from Amazon. We will re-bag for each box so bulk is great!

Love, Mrs. Ashley

Matthew 25:40 - The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’

LovePacks

LovePacks is in need of coloring books and crayons.

If you make a donation at church for LovePacks, either put cash in an envelope and mark it LovePacks, or if writing a check, please make it out to LovePacks and not the church. We do not have an account here for that. We will be glad to pass along your donations to them though! 

Thank you so very much for all of your generous donations!

2744 9th Avenue, Haleyville, AL 3565

Non-perishable items may be put in the box at any time. Anyone may take items from the box as they are needed.  

Suggestions: small toiletries, wipes, pop-top canned goods, cereal, pop tarts, peanut butter, shelf stable milk, canned meat, etc.
