December Social Action News

Contact person:  Ed Kearns

The Coffeehouse on November 17 was a big success, raising $130 after expenses.  This money helped to provide Personal Care Holiday Gift bags for inmates at Oklahoma’s Mabel Bassett Women’s Maximum Security Prison.  These gift bags contain basic items such as shampoos and lotions that the state  prison system will not provide.

The Norman Christmas Holiday Parade is set for 10 AM Saturday, December 8.   Our entry for the parade is being organized by Aimee Rook, so please call her at 360-3756 if you wish to participate.

NUUF currently has two Christmas charity collection drives running concurrently.  
1)  Please bring your children’s old toys to Sunday service to be wrapped for  the children at the JD McCarty Center, Oklahoma’s “center of excellence”  for children with developmental disabilities and other special needs.
2) Please bring your old clothes to Sunday service for Food and Shelter for  Friends, a Norman-based charity that feeds hungry persons and provides  shelter to homeless families, allowing them the chance to become self- sufficient.

Donations will be accepted at NUUF through Sunday, December 16.
