December 1, 2019, Potluck: Donate to Candy for the Incarcerated

Rev. Cynthia Stewart is collecting money or Christmas bags for the 800 incarcerated men at DeBerry Special Needs prison here in Nashville, where those who have severe medical and sometimes end of life needs are sent. The prison ministry she works for is already working on providing other things like shampoo, socks, and beanies, but would like some help purchasing goodies to go in the bag. Would you consider donating $5 or $10 during the pot luck lunch on December 1? Or you can make a donation through GoFundMe at Candy for the Incarcerated.
