November 12, 2023 UPDATE – from Terri Markey
We have an almost full container of donated books for Beebe Delivers which will be picked up soon!
This month, we have a need for Christmas books (donated before December 11). Books and food are delivered to recipients on December 13. Books to be donated to Beebe Delivers can be dropped in a plastic tub located in the Church Office.
We appreciate Epworth’s response for donations of children’s books!
Lightly used books for children and teens are needed for the Beebe Delivers program. Beebe Delivers is a community program organized by Beebe Healthcare, assisted by volunteers from Epworth UMC and Seaside Jewish Community. For over a year, we have been providing books for children in families served by Beebe’s once-a-month food program. Information about Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library and other children’s literacy programs is also provided. Questions about the book portion of Beebe Delivers can be directed to Terri Markey, teryldm@yahoo.com. Questions about becoming involved as a delivery driver or team member can be directed to Reber Whitner, rebsteph@gmail.com.
