Local churches are encouraged to continue the collection of Kits for Conference. Specific collection details still underway, but will very likely include organization of regional, or district-wide, drop-off locations. More information will be forthcoming at www.vaumc.org/ac2020 as the new plan is created and finalized. 

Cans 4 Conference coordinator Herb Brynildsen shared that conference members are encouraged to start or continue collecting cans for your local food bank or pantry as your conference collection (four cans or bags or boxes or car loads — remember pop tops, fruit, soup, veggies and any nonperishable boxes). You are encouraged to take a picture of your food collection and post it on the conference Facebook page.
